A machine has a base (2), a rotating element (4) and at least one bearing system (6). Said bearing system (6) has an operating bearing (7) and a backup bearing (8) associated with the operating bearing (7). The backup bearing (8) has a base bearing ring (9) and a rotating element bearing ring (10) that is rotationally arranged relative to the base bearing ring (9). In a normal operating mode of the machine, the rotating element (4) is permanently received by the operating bearing (7) relative to the base (2) in a contact-free manner so that the rotating element bearing ring (10) does not rotate relative to the base bearing ring (9). In a special mode of operation of the machine, in which the rotating element (4) is not received by the operating bearing (7) in a contact-free manner, the rotating element (4) sets the rotating element bearing ring (10) rotating relative to the base bearing ring (9) so that the rotating element (4) is at least temporarily received with contact via the backup bearing (8). A liquid-metal anti-friction layer (11) is arranged between the base bearing ring (9) and the rotating element bearing ring (10).
