The invention relates to the problem of exposure of passengers and crew members of aircraft to cosmic radiation. To reduce the radiation exposure, a safety belt is described, which has a protective effect against cosmic radiation, wherein the belt is combined with a cosmic radiation absorbing material or such material is incorporated into the belt, and wherein the cosmic radiation absorbing material contains boron or a boron-containing material. A corresponding method for the production of a safety belt for passengers and crew members of aircraft is also described. Thereby, an effective means to protect the passengers and crew members of aircraft against cosmic radiation is provided, which can be implemented without affecting air traffic and without serious economic consequences for commercial aviation.
