title: [Toward the promotion of researches utilizing microgravity].
abstract: Although many opportunities to make experiments under microgravity conditions have been given in the recent decade, it does not seem that a dramatic or decisive result has been obtained by use of microgravity. Promising some experiments in the space station are now near at hand, but it may be necessary to reconsider what the microgravity experiment is or how the microgravity field should be effectively utilized.
