Aerial Drift is a device that assists in the mobility of astronauts and parastronauts.

The device can be used in an emergency situation when the user is stuck in such a way that they cannot reach any surface of the station and therefore are unable to move.

The device can be used by all astronauts as a mean of transportation.

It is composed of two handles, each with an on/off button and a charging mechanism, and a middle hollow section with the air output. Inside each handle, there is a battery, a small engine, and a powerful fan that creates an airflow to push the user forward.

Aerial Drift is unique in its approach because it is one of the first devices that address mobility in microgravity that does not require impulse from a fixed surface.

It is not only for emergency situations but it is also a comfortable and fun way of moving in microgravity environments.

We took inspiration from sea scooters, water-propelled devices, and Dyson’s products with non-visible blades.

We wanted Aerial Drift to be compact and lightweight so that its users could carry it at all times.
