Abstract: The superstring action in AdS_5 x S^5 depends on two parameters: the inverse string tension a' and the radius R. The standard AdS/CFT correspondence requires that the string coordinates are rescaled so that the action depends only on one combination of the two: (lambda)^{1/2} = R^2/a'. Then lambda o 0 limit is equivalent to R o 0 for fixed $a^{\prime }$ or to the zero-tension limit in AdS_5 x S^5: a' o infty for fixed R. After reviewing previous work hep-th/0009171 on the light cone superstring we explicitly obtain the lambda= 0 form of its action. Its zero-mode part is the same as the superparticle action in AdS_5 x S^5, and thus the lambda=0 string spectrum must include, as expected, the ``protected type IIB supergravity states. Following recent suggestions, it is conjectured that the spectrum of this tensionless string should as well contain higher spin massless states in AdS_5. We also discuss the case of another parametrization of the string action which has straightforward R oinfty flat space limit but where R o 0 and a' o infty limits are not equivalent. There R o 0 corresponds to shrinking S^5 to zero the size and ``freezing the fluctuations of the radial coordinate of AdS_5. This case is the basis of the ``non-standard AdS/CFT correspondence suggested in hep-th/0010106. Parts of this work were presented in the talk at ``Supergravity at 25 conference, Stony Brook, December 1-2, 2001.
