What do the Planets Sound Like?
Here it comes…
“BUT THERE’S NO SOUND IN SPACE!”
While technically this is true (sound can’t move through a vacuum), there are electromagnetic waves: light, infared, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma rays and radio waves. When we convert those into sound, we can hear quite a lot.
YouTuber Aryanatomy compiled sounds captured from NASA missions into one video for your listening…pleasure?
YouTuber Mortebianca captured the sounds perfectly with these descriptions:
Sun: I'm calm and Zen
Mercury: I WANT TO GET FREEEEEE
Venus: Giant Gong
Earth: FREAKING AIRPLANES MEANS HUMANS
Mars: Wind, creepy whispers. It's basically Doom.
Jupiter: What you think an H.R. Giger potrait sounds like
Saturn: PURE ABSOLUTE CHAOTIC EVIL FROM A LOVECRAFTIAN HELL
Uranus: It's just wind all over the place. If you're italian, that's a double joke for you. Giant fart maybe?
Neptune: Eternally Heavy Breathing Intensifies
Pluto: "Freaking Alien TV, it's just White Noise".
