U+1CCA0 "𜲠" Left-Pointing Rocket Booster Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1CCA0 "𜲠" Left-Pointing Rocket Booster is a rare and specialized symbol found in the Unicode Standard's Supplementary Multilingual Plane, specifically within the block used for the Sutton SignWriting script, where it represents a directional handshape or movement glyph rather than a literal depiction of a rocket booster. Despite its name evoking an image of a rocket engine facing left, this character functions as a notation element in SignWriting, a system for writing sign languages, to indicate a hand shape, arm configuration, or motion direction in a sign language transcription. Its inclusion in Unicode ensures that digital texts can accurately represent such linguistic details, though it requires specific fonts and software support to be displayed correctly.
