My design is for zero gravity environment for tackling situation by astronauts boots. Boots design has three different levels of attraction with surface of iron spaceship. Design from upper side top is suggest partially attraction in surface that not mean to walk or move freely. Second,
In space there is zero gravitational force and because of that astronauts cannot make fix to stay or stand on exact position compared to a gravity environment.
AUTOMATICALLY SMART GATES FOR STORM WATER INLETS WITH ELECTRONIC MAINTENANCE
New Innovation to improve Infrastructure Maintenance and Operation by creating smart gates for storm water inlets that are sensitive to rain (open and close) automatically when required to restrict sand from flooding these inlets during or before rain.

Anesthesia is a major drug that takes part in almost all kinds of major surgey. Anesthesia is administered to a patient by taking a few body parameters into account. This is usually done by an anesthetist where one manually analyzes these parameters and calculates the dosage.
ADDS (At Depth DeSalinization)
Placing the salt water reverse osmosis (swro) collector on the sea floor, at depths of 1,500 to 2,000’ seems to have some distinct advantages over onshore installations.
-energy efficient since only processed water is pumped, reducing energy consumption.
Astronauts who spend long periods of time in weightless environments tend to suffer from loss of bone density and muscle mass. The intent of this idea is to reduce the degree to which astronauts experience these problems.
