Shoes or boots for astronauts to enable movement and sport in the weightless environment of outer space

摘要

The shoes or boots (7) are provided with at least one rotating head (1) which is coupled to a fast electric motor (6) to rotate the head at high speed about its axis. The direction of rotation can be switched. The rotating head is preferably built into the sole of the shoe. A controller for the device may be provided in the astronaut's glove. An intensive light emitting diode may also be provided in the shoe, which can also be used at a working lamp.
