If the gamma radiation is not from the sun, where do you
believe it is comming from?

I'm rather astonished that you (or anyone) would disagree.

No, never. I was raised on a mountain top by Anglican monks who
did not think that worldly matters were of any importance. 

The objects you are referring to were on a trajectory that sent
them as far away from the sun as was doable. They were moving
_away_ from the sun which might be a factor here? 

The trajectory to Mars is somewhat a modified orbit around the
sun and not particularly far from the sun at it's apex. No
matter, I'm certain this is all very astonishing to you.
