By the way,the belt only lasted around a Month and was attributed to a Solar Prominence/Filament Ejection.
But I'd still contend there are issues with aspects of the Apollo Mission...ie. The Camera Film Protective Containers were made of Aluminum only and did not contain any Water etc. to help shield from Gamma Radiation.
Aluminum would only block Alpha/Beta Radiation so the Film should have been shot.
It wasn't,apparently.
Have I misinformed myself about the Films Protection?
Could be wrong.
Quoting: Spittin'Cesium How much gamma is there? Do you realize that gamma is NOT blocked by the Van Allen belts? So any they might have encountered on the Moon (very low) is about the same as in low Earth orbit where they have taken pics with film since before man was in space. Gamma damages Film on Earth. We've all seen it. There is plenty of potential Gamma sources and a lot of time taken,all things considered...Where is the damage? Do you know about the STS Film Protection experiments? Here [ link to ston.jsc.nasa.gov] . Why not use the Hasselblads awesome design!? Not once can I remember reading the Hasselblad mentioned? I find that strange.  you didn't answer the question. The amount in orbit is about the same as on the Moon. The old Corona spy satellites had no gamma protection. Gamma sources just aren't as common as you think they are. Did you read my Comment? Read the PDFs' main thrust?
