They're protected against solar radiation at the very least. And possibly enough to survive the van allen belt if things went seriously wrong, I presume.

Aparently they had some radiation shielding, just not for the wavelengths that would need heavy lead covering.

Most people believe radiation is a major hazard of space flight, but even by the 1960s technology had progressed to the point where you actually need very little radiation shielding to survive on a movie studio.

They're not radiation proof AFAIK, that would be too heavy.
