We present an overview of the NuSTAR non x-ray background. This is dominated by proton scattering in the detector and surrounding material as well as activation lines from of material in the detector and its housing. We also discuss contributions from the solar component (when the Sun is active), and the impact of short-lived radiation belts on the NuSTAR background and activation in the detectors.
