Payload boomerang technology means that after an experimental PS (payload satellite) is launched from the SS (space station) into space and experiments are performed while flying the experimental PS in space, the experimental PS will be recovered by the SS. Such an experimental PS can be regarded as a kind of free flier, and compared with free fliers which are usually considered. It is necessary to collect basic data on space experiments, and it can be considered that this payload boomerang technology is extremely useful because experiments can be performed readily and repeatedly.
