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.

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.
if only someone could event a dual purpose device, maybe something that could be put in back gardens up and down the country to dry clothes whilst at the same time listening for noises from space 
We had thunder and lightning last night. Quite bright and noisy.
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.

Depeche mode beat me to it,well done to them for an innovative title for their album.
but if we were in space we would not hear the thunder,why is this?
oh I forgot the sound of thunder is hot air and cold air meeting ,no air in space so no thunder in space.
If you go far enough out into the universe you will hear Shakespeare speaking , a little further and you will hear Christ .
Funny you should ask this question brassneck, I watched this video before, it's brilliant. I introduce to you Genadi Tkachenko on Georgia's Got Talent

As with the stars we now see that have been dead for thousands of years, we can see them
If you go out into the universe you will hear Shakespeare speak

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 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.

I think Charlie got two goals against your team in 71.
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.
Thanks Lfc1971 that's the best explanation I have ever heard about why the universe
is............
is............
We can feel silence, if you go into the universe all things past, all things vanishing away are closer than ever.
imo this is a far better thread for lfc's talents. however, i am surprised he supports heighway a confirmed leftist, shame on you lfc
Who ate all the pie was it Trump or are the pies getting smaller?
A quick question....

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 
(which kind of explains the lack of recent films).
(which kind of explains the lack of recent films).
yes..but since when has it been "The Addams Family" with two d's???
Since about 1964...

just checking left out the d in addam, but put three extra M's down in family.

I was singing. Everyone knows they lyrics to the theme tune accentuate fammmmmmily. Dum dum dum dum!
Actually it's more a stress on the "a", me bad :)

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.

In space you couldn't stand still for long , you would have to keep moving.
Can you imagine if it was raining in space, that would be wonderland to see that, there would be something consoling about it.

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!
