Zusammenfassung:	A transport system is for transporting an object back and forth between a storage area and a target area. The transport system has a pedestal for being placed at one of the storage area and the target area. The transport system has a main boom pivotably connected to the pedestal. The main boom has a far end configured for being supported by the other one of the storage area and the target area while allowing for at least one rotational degree of freedom between the main boom and the other one of the storage area and the target area. The main boom has a span that is passively adjustable in length. Furthermore, the transport system has a transport boom coupled with the main boom, and an object handler guided by the transport boom and configured for handling the object to be transported between the storage area and the target area.
