    Title

    MULTILINGUAL ASTRONAUTICAL TERMINOLOGY SYMPOSIUM

    Description

    This Symposium organized by the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) will review the progress made in multilingual space terminology and its impact on international cooperation in space. Terminology is a key issue for a better understanding among people using various languages and dialects. Consecutive or simultaneous translation doesn’t remove risk of ambiguity during technical meetings and terminology accuracy is essential during all phases of cooperation. The session will address issues such as standardization of definitions in space science and technology. Specific character of space emerging countries and African countries will be discussed.
