Some say the universe is silent,now I always thought that there was a lot going on in the universe,with stars exploding and black holes sucking everything in and planets colliding with each other and galaxies bursting  and yet some experts say that the universe is silent,even stars that hum are never detected by earths state of art radio wave detectors  .
Am I to believe that there is really nothing only silence ,surely after all these years you would think some noise or other would be picked up .like the  something grinding.
Even the big bang was not a bang at all.So I guess ears don't work in space,or noise does not travel in space,and if noise does not travel what the point in having noise detectors directed at space.Then some guy come along and says "we can pick up the noise of the big bang but it not on our state of the noise detectors,we know there was noise due the back round radiation position that was not really a bang but more of an expansion .but we need to do more research"
So there is no noise yet Saturn hums every day ,"we are not sure what the hum is because we can not hear the hum 'but we know there is a hum due to our vibrationgraph detector that indicated a hum.but we need to do more research.LaughLaughLaughLaugh

It's radio noise not sound noise totally different things. Get an AM radio. Tune it out of a channel and listen to the hiss. Noise. Those after big bang density maps of the universe are created by pointing a radio wave detector into the sky, like a microwave earhorn not a *****ing REAL earhorn like a cartoon pensioner.

Can they not send out a tape recorder on a new voyager 3 and send it outto  that famous belt they talk about switch it on and then return it back to earth and  listen to it.or send a probe to pluto again and try and pick up sounds of the universe.
oh I just thought of a name for my new album 'SOUNDS OF THE UNIVERSE"but somewhere in the corridors of my mind I think someone else used the same words for there album in the sixties.i will have to google it.Laugh

You would think that would mean that the universe is very very noisy,
But no, it is so vast and we are so small,

But the sounds are there, what you said on your first day at school, the voices of your loved ones , your parents and old friends, perhaps long gone.
You would hear them speak again if you went out into space.

hi LFC 71,The Charlie George era,you quote two of the most famous men that walked this planet,both genius in their own right,you may be correct ,both may have moved on to greener pastures.
I was wondering if a blind person asked the two people you speak of what colour is silence what would be their answer.
remember a blind person can feel the silence so they would be confused if you told them it had no colour and nobody can see silence ,and only blind people can feel it.
Some people go as far as to say that you can cut silence ,but how do you explain to a blind person what silence is,
something you can not see,or hear,or touch ,and it has no sound .
yet the blind person will tell you they felt the silence in the room.Laugh

hi brassneck, it's funny you mention that cup final.
It was while watching that game as s young boy that I decided to follow Liverpool
Steve Highway became my favourite footballer, and remained so even through all the following years.
He scored one , and George, and the other at the time was credited to George graham ...but that was an optical illusion, a very strange one and he hadn't scored it.
So Liverpool lost , but it's my favourite game even now. because that was the start.

Steve Heighway scored first , and Liverpool lost . That's ok, heroes often lose.

We can feel silence, if you go into the universe all things past, all things vanishing away are closer than ever.

I was watching a film the other day with a spanish looking actor in it, and couldn't place him but knew he used to be quite popular. Looked him up and he was in the Adams family films, Gomez, Raul Julia, died young aged 54 in 1994 Sad (which kind of explains the lack of recent films).

The universe is nothing but continuous 'noise' - every part of the electromagnetic spectrum shrieks continuously. Consider, the various types of astronomer - radio, microwave, infra-red, visible, u/v, x-rays, gamma rays ... Sound waves require a medium to be transmitted - air or water - thank god for empty space or we would all be insane. It would be like having crags shouting garbage in your ear 24 hours a day.

Hi crags. Hope you are well.

I find that impossible to imagine. And I'm trying really hard.

Think of noise in space as the old pseudo-philosophy 'conundrum'

If a tree (or a many eyed, many legged monster) falls on another planet and there's no-one there to hear it. Does it make a sound?

btw, bodil completely correct, if it wasn't for air on earth. you wouldn't hear a thing!
