Abstract
A passive guidance mechanism enables smooth guiding to a desired position; and a flying object landing system enables smooth guiding to and landing at a desired position. A pair of guide rails are arranged side by side with a space therebetween, and are provided so that the space increases toward one set of tips of the guide rails. One guide rail is supported so as to be rotatable about a first shaft extending in a direction perpendicular to a plane including the guide rails, at or near the tip of the guide rail. The other guide rail is supported so as to be rotatable about a second shaft extending in a direction perpendicular to the plane including the guide rails, at or near the tip of the guide rail.
