Geant4 is a vital tool for understanding and calibrating the response of space-borne radiation sensors at The Aerospace Corporation. In the year since the last Geant4 Space Users' Workshop, we have taken advantage of new physics lists that include nuclear interactions of heavy ion projectiles on heavy ion targets to improve our understanding of the response of the Cosmic Ray Telescope for the...
