Uhm seems this documentary is impossible to find, maybe the french Orbinauts can help? Or the new zealanders, australians, canadians, Am I the only one who saw this, I don't want to believe, no, please ...my research skills are freaky and I couldn't find it.
It was no Fata Morgana and I wasn't drunk twice when watching! :tiphat:
/edit: Another thing I can recall: It was a deepspace scene, Mars was small far in front, a alert happened, electromagnetic particle storm, the crew turned on "the shield". It was a real like spacecraft, something ugly and usefull, the shield effect appeared in the center of the ship, it was a slight rotation, almost invisible, when particles collided colours appeared here and there, a small radius effect of ?three spiral-arms changing colours. It was a CGI effect of course but now I recall another thing: They said something like this (re-imaginated and translated to english): "To stand against the dangers of deepspace travelling our mars astronauts would need to use a certain kind of technology, unlike sci-fi just a shield againts radiation nothing more, this device would produce colourful ?outbursts keeping the crew safe at least when medium solar flares take place or if they enter an area of deepspace with cosmic rays". Then they said something like "this could be a real world shielding system that could be enhanced by stronger hull platings and the use of composite materials".
Somewhere some years ago I red about a NASA magnetic shielding system, it was popular science news. The documentary / movie was made before that afaik but remember, the docuMovie was made with the help of space agencies.
/here we go ladies and orbinauts: solving at least one thing Yay: I found resources, people behind the real project:

german: http://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/...hnik-soll-raumschiffe-schuetzen-a-478308.html
/well as I said freaky research skills (extraction/translated, source: astronomics forum, even more data is available there):
Radition dose - radiation moon flights: max. 200 mSv/h (2 hours means 400 mSv)
German dose limit: 20 mSv/a means 400 mSv/healthy
Brazil dose limit: 200 mSv/a
Sun flares: 400 mSv/h
Human measure limit: 250 mSv (2003)
Radiation dose at 3.000 meters: 1,1 mSv/a
