A payload suspension system is described herein. A payload suspension system may comprise a suspended payload container within an internal cavity defined by the payload suspension system. The suspended payload container may be suspended by one or more tensile members. The one or more tensile members may be coupled with respective tension adjustment mechanisms configured to adjust a tension of the tensile members. The tension may be adjusted based on a transition to and from a low- or micro-gravity state, in order to provide an increased or decreased movement/rotational ability for the payload container. The low- or micro-gravity state may be produced due to an aircraft performing a parabolic maneuver.
