| Re: Quick question about the sun Sound is sort of the energy that particles emit for their vibrations (very, very nubified explanation). But the key word there is particles. Sound requires particles, matter, to exist.
You can be damn sure that the sun has noise, and lots of it. However, in order to hear it, you'd have to be in its atmosphere, or inside one its gigantic protuberances. Once you reach an area which is void of matter, you can't hear a damn thing.
So far, I don't think we've developed any kind of probe that would be able to handle the heat, let alone made the calculations to use the gravity of the sun to make the probe stop at its atmosphere instead of just crashing into the sun.
Easy version: It makes sound, but you can only hear it if you're there. |
