(Incidentally, don't you think Clarke and Hyams seriously downplayed the nastiness of Jupiter's radiation environment in the vicinity of Io? I wouldn't go spacewalking around there, that's for sure.)
Yeah, big time.
Clarke is too smart for this, so perhaps he did some handwave in the novel that I've forgotten. Time for another trip to the cellar!
