We judge the world and beyond with our very limited senses and as a result we take very little into account before claiming something to be fact.

It is no different to someone asking you to smell something that is a mile away. You would say it smells of nothing but to an animal with a better sense of smell it might smell like dinner.

If your senses were better/different then space would have sounds.

Empty your cup a little and let a little wonder back into your life.

I think any sort of wave that we can interpret as sound should count as sound. I found the post delightful.

Composers have been working with these signals for more than 20 years including the NASA Voyager Space Sounds. The recordings are credited to Fred Scarf, PhD a space plasma scientist, but they were then manipulated in studio – by whom is not clear. The recordings have been released by several companies including Delta, Laserlight and Brain/Mind Research between 1989 and 1992 as LPs and later CDs and finally as downloads available at the iTunes Store. Others who’ve used these electro-magnetic signals to create music include Charles Dodge (as data), Fiorella Terenzi, Gérard Griséy (live pulsar signals) and myself, among many others, I’m sure.

In the research I contacted NASA but after numerous queries to various of their agencies and some detective work on their part no one seemed to know anything about the recordings.

Otherwise, though there is no true sound in the near-vacuum of space, there are imprints, evidence of the actual sound of the Big Bang, on the cosmic microwave background. John Cramer at the University of Washington has emulated this sound (sped up in several versions so that anywhere from 20 to 500 seconds represent the first 760,000 years of evolution of the universe). http://faculty.washington.edu/jcramer/BBSound_2013.html

FInally, there are other sounds possible where there are atmospheres or some other medium for sound to pass through. By use of time lapse photography it’s possible to monitor the vibrational activity of a star. In doing this astrophysicists track the vibrational rate of the body as it’s ringing like a bell from all of the sonic activity that is roaring on the surface. It’s possible to model these resonances, though they are so low that they have to be transposed by thousands of octaves to made audible by humans. In 2011 I created a sound installation “Nature of the Night Sky” in the Bavarian Forest with sounds of 15 stars and last year worked with a NASA astrophysicist to create an installation using the sound of the Sun, which was produced at Rothko Chapel, Houston. The first work is on the CD, the Sun work is coming out later this year.

I didn’t!

Sound requires moving gas.

Disappointing, and very misleading post.
