NASA lets you hear the sound of black hole | Mashable.
NASA shares sound of black hole and it sounds exactly as creepy as you thought it would
In space, no one can hear you scream – unless you're a supermassive black hole.
NASA made this very apparent on Sunday, sharing what the agency described as the sound of a black hole, available to human ears in listenable format.
And if you're wondering how the hell does sound travel in the vacuum of space, NASA has an explanation.
"The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole," NASA's account dedicated to exoplanets tweeted.
The galaxy cluster you're "hearing" is Perseus, the data comes from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, and the recording was released back in May for NASA's Black Hole Week. As NASA explained it back then, "Astronomers discovered that pressure waves sent out by the black hole caused ripples in the cluster’s hot gas that could be translated into a note — one that humans cannot hear some 57 octaves below middle C."
To us, it just sounds like a beginning of a very sinister dubstep track.
Black holes can be "sonified" in much more pleasing ways, though. NASA also has a sonification of the black hole located around 54 million light years away at the center of Galaxy Messier 87, or M87 (you can listen below). Yes, this is the one captured in humanity's first image of a black hole through the Event Horizon Telescope. The track uses data captured from several telescopes — the Chandra X-ray Observatory, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, and the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) in Chile — and maps the wavelengths to a different range of audible tones. The result, while very far from actual sound a black hole makes, is something you might enjoy at your next yoga session.

Sorry there is No sound in a vacuum.
ReplyDeleteyou didn’t read the article did you

ReplyDelete2001: A Space Oddesy was release April 6, 1968
As if today it was released about 476,649 hours ago.
Presuming that the movie was sent as a signal a few years later it would’ve travelled about 54 light years away.
Makes sense that the sound would be the soundtrack of the movie.
🤷🏻♂️😂‼️
Terrifying but incredible
ReplyDeleteThat's a car and a bike going through a tunnel! 😅
ReplyDeleteEnergy, frecuency and vibration!.. JOHN 1.1. (WORD = FRECUENCY AND VIBRATION).. BIBLE WAS RIGHT!

ReplyDeleteAlso no, I'm not opening that article.

"Pressure waves sent out by the black hole caused ripples in the cluster’s hot gas that could be translated into a note – one that humans cannot hear some 57 octaves below middle C. .... This new sonification – that is, the translation of astronomical data into sound." Not sound.
ReplyDeleteSTANDARD GRM BOLLOCKS
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like like hell😭
ReplyDelete😳😳😍😍👽👽👽👽
ReplyDeleteBecause the laws of physics are universal. No matter what kind of environments we find, that will always hold true. Visible light, sound, touch, etc will always be a thing in any environment we can survive in.

ReplyDeleteSo there’s sound…it just can’t be heard w/o amplification?

ReplyDeleteYou can't get a man in space but you can make eerie sounds by heavily editing and increasing the pitch by millions of times...
ReplyDeleteIt's just the players of our simulation discussing how things are going.
