Safe Mode: On
Symphonies of the planets, Jupiter

From an original CD: JUPITER NASA-VOYAGER SPACE SOUNDS (1990) BRAIN/MIND Research
Fascinating
recording of Jupiter sounds (electromagnetic "voices") by NASA-Voyager.
The complex interactions of charged electromagnetic particles from the
solar wind , planetary magnetosphere etc. create vibration
"soundscapes". It sounds very interesting, even scary.
Jupiter is
mostly composed of hydrogen and helium. The entire planet is made of
gas, with no solid surface under the atmosphere. The pressures and
temperatures deep in Jupiter are so high that gases form a gradual
transition into liquids which are gradually compressed into a metallic
"plasma" in which the molecules have been stripped of their outer
electrons. The winds of Jupiter are a thousand metres per second
relative to the rotating interior. Jupiter's magnetic field is four
thousand times stronger than Earth's, and is tipped by 11° degrees of
axis spin. This causes the magnetic field to wobble, which has a
profound effect on trapped electronically charged particles. This plasma
of charged particles is accelerated beyond the magnetosphere of Jupiter
to speeds of tens of thousands of kilometres per second. It is these
magnetic particle vibrations which generate some of the sound you hear
on this recording.

    • @The Answer actually you could be onto something there I remember these sounds, sound very similar.

    • @DarkRein


      i was doing some research on it ages ago, and read it could be solar sounds, and through my research those sounds were real becuase i remember seeing a news report about them with thousands of people hearing it, very strange, although the sounds are some how soothing.

    • @The Answer
      Most of them were fakes using the sounds from movies. There were a few though that were legit. Back in oct of last year there was an incredible aurora that showed up in places that usually don't get them. A few days later there were sounds that showed up. I do believe that some sounds do show up during a good solar storm.

  • very fascinating, but it gives me an eerie feeling, i bet this is what limbo sounds like

  • Is this the actual sound or is there music playing through it? I'm confused, it just sounds too amazing, like music....

    • @RagingBlack we exist inside this universe, we can move around, and manipulate things in this universe, but we also forget to realize that we are the universe, we can make music, so why cant the rest of the universe make music?

  • Wow, absolutely amazing! Thanks for the upload.

    We surely cannot hear EM radiation though. Even if the frequency of that radiation is within the range of a human ears perception of air vibrations. Perhaps someone can enlighten me if I am wrong here. Like, if you were floating in space, sitting in a space suit, would you ACTUALLY hear that noise? I think it's just that the detectors on the satellite, can detect light particles which are between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz in frequency.

    Anyway even if n More..

  • That's awesome. That's some of the coolest ambient sound I've heard.

    There was a site hosted by Stanford that had audio conversions of the suns vibrations over the span of months, sped up to a few minutes. It rings like a bell or a tuning fork...
