Sound of Deep Space

radio waves

Yeah, I meant to say that. Somehow I got confused by the pitch part of the article, and reading it again I can see why. The article is very misleading and technically inaccurate, in the sense that it refers to radio waves as "sound".

The sound was recorded by the Cluster II satellite

The sounds picked up by the Soho spacecraft

I failed to see that before.

If there is vibration there is sound. Doesn't matter if theres a medium for it to travel through or not. And we don't need a medium to hear sound either, We can just track the vibration using laser baems and convert that vibration to sound. Which is also known as Laser beam eavesdropping (or something) and there are lots of other methods for capturing sound.

Actually, it does. What we call "sound" is the vibration of the air around us (like super_mario666 said).

That's a completely different issue. We humans don't have embedded laser beams, and you're comparing sound to light. The laser beam technique is measuring vibrations and converting the resulting wave to sound. The end result is not the actual sound, but rather a model of the vibrations produced by the sound beating on an object.

Yes the end result is very similar to the actual sound. This tech is being used by spy agencies as we speak. Infact it was used on locations where US government though Saddam was hiding, and this tech helped them to pinpoint their target.

Funny, this whole time I thought it was just conjecture and guess-work..
