A large problem that emerges from being in a zero gravity environment is that once you push off a surface, you no longer have control over your angular momentum. The impact of this issue on our space station is that it creates unnecessary danger for its inhabitants. This lack of safety causes even simple tasks to be harmful, as our space station is a modular network that is continually in motion, so traveling through the network becomes increasingly difficult. However, this issue will no longer be at the forefront of our minds, now that people have access to the P.P.D. (Personal Propulsion Device). This device will use compressed air from the stations atmosphere in order to allow the user control over their movement, removing the worry of collision in the space station.
