ABSTRACT:
A rail transport system is secured to a space station and provides a path for astronaut travel. Releasable bindings are journalled to a rail so that an astronaut can quickly travel from one point to another and release the binding so he is free to move at the arrived point. The rails may be configured in a continuous path so that a minimum of binding disconnections is possible. Oppositely facing binding means are also provided so that the astronaut may travel bi-directionally along the rail.
