- Abstract
Space travel has begun, the number of non-English speaking space travelers will increase. Because of the limited seating capacity, an interpreter may not be able to travel with them. When this happens, the biggest problem is communication. In this paper, we introduce a space version of hand signals to enable passengers to communicate with each other. As the space version of hand signals becomes more common, we believe it will be useful for people who will live in space or on the moon in the future.
