Graduation project
Red Comet
Nolan Le Goff
A running shoe designed to be used on Mars prevents the negative effects of low gravity on the wearer’s body.
The 'Red Comet' is a running shoe, designed to be used on Mars. It's designed to prevent the loss of muscle mass and bone density on the red planet. The gravity of Mars corresponds to 38% of the Earth's gravitational force. Unfortunately, low gravity is detrimental for the human body. The first Mars settlers will therefore suffer from the effects of low gravity. 'Red Comet' combats those effects with integrated weights to increase the wearer’s Mars mass, stimulating the body as if the user was exercising on Earth. The project is born from a passion about Mars exploration and running.
