The video successfully translates complex electromagnetic data into a visceral experience, making the invisible rhythms of the universe accessible to a general audience. However, its sensationalist framing slightly overshadows the rigorous scientific process of sonification.

The 7 Most Terrifying Sounds Captured In Space!Ajouté :
These are seven of some of the most terrifying sounds ever captured in space. And one of them still actually doesn't have a real explanation. And we're starting with the most mysterious and dangerous space object ever discovered.
The hole.
A black hole.
Heat.
Heat.
Now, the question is, are there scarier sounds? And if so, which one is the scariest? But just before I answer that question, I need to explain something.
Sound can't travel in space. So, what the hell did you just listen to? In a way, this black hole just farted. Now, let me explain. This was recorded from a black hole in the Perseus cluster. This black hole had sent out pressure waves through the cluster's gas. Pressure waves we on Earth could see using NASA's Shandra X-ray Observatory. The sonification you just listened to was the result of taking those X-rays and converting them into sound. Pretty cool.
So, it's just about the closest thing we can get to sound in space. And that would be all I have to say about it. But you're on the Almond the Artist YouTube channel, so it's time for the Tower of Terror.
>> The Tower of Terror.
>> The Tower of Terror.
>> The Tower of Terror.
>> The Tower of What? Who told you?
This is the Tower of Terror. There are seven slots and seven sounds. As we go through the video, I will be placing each sound in the Tower of Terror. And by the end, we will have a clear winner for the most terrifying sound ever captured in space, or as I like to call it, the Lord of Astrophobe.
Astrophobia is the fear of space. By the way, as of right now, I'll put the black hole in the middle as a kind of baseline. But every sound after this could go above or below. So without further ado, next sound. This is what the edge of our solar system sounds like. This is the Voyager leaving our solar system.
What the hell was that? What you're hearing is the Voyager's path through what's called the termination shock.
It's the region where solar wind suddenly becomes it's it slows down and becomes denser. And this is the sonification of that. The higher the frequency you hear, the higher the density of the plasma. But that's the sciency wording of it. Could be a little more dramatic, you're literally hearing the moment humanity left home. Now it's time for the Tower of Terror. Does it beat out the black hole? Does it even have a chance at the Lord of Astrophobia? My opinion, it's eerie, but it's not beating the black hole. Let's be real. Uh, pardon me, I almost threw up. This next one, this one might actually take the crown for the scariest sound ever discovered. Not even just in space. This thing is freaking terrifying. Follow me. I mean, I did the research and it's just absolutely insane.
Dude, IS THAT OPERA?
YEAH, Opera is the sponsor of today's video. Your brain is like a bag of nuts.
All shaken around, not focused, and not productive. And it's all because of that lame browser you're using. I bet you're even watching this on a basic default browser. You shouldn't be. My nuts deserve a cool browser. Look at this.
Look at this. Look at all these tabs open while I'm doing research. I don't want to delete them, but I get lost.
This is important. Not research important, but emotionally. Opera lets me see exactly which tabs I was looking at last with tab traces. See that little underscore? The darker it is, the more recently I open that tab. And the tab organization only gets even better with tab islands, which lets you group them by theme, project, or context. Don't look at that. So now I can keep my nuts collected. Look at those nuts organized thriving, and I can focus on my research. But the coolest feature, in my opinion, is the theming. I mean, you can go absolutely nuts with it.
I am so funny. You can also be normal and use a whole bunch of different backgrounds and colors. Look at this one. This one is an Interstellar one.
That reminds me, do you like watching videos? Uh, no. Well, Opera lets you detach and move your videos anywhere so you can watch videos whilst you do important stuff. Maybe you want to take notes while you listen to an Almond the Artist video.
Maybe. So, if you want a browser that can keep up with your brain, click the link in the description and give Opera a shot. I actually really enjoy it.
Finally, I can focus on what matters.
Jupiter What you just heard was actual radio waves coming from Jupiter's auroras. It was captured via an instrument called waves. But what you're actually hearing is charged particles moving through Jupiter's magnetic field near the planet's poles. This movement creates actual radio emissions. It's like the planet is screaming electromagnetic waves. The tower of terror. This one probably has the highest chance of being the lord of astrophobia. At least that we've discussed so far. This is so unnerving, dude. It sounds literally alive. It sounds like it's screaming.
I'm I'm I'm putting it above the black hole. There are worse sounds coming up.
But before we get to that, this next sound I would say is actually the single most boring sound on the list. A pulsar, a literal spinning neutron star, is the most boring sound on the list. Here, just listen.
Basically, every little pulse you hear is a full rotation of a rapidly spinning neutron star. And that's not even the most bizarre part. There are even faster ones than this. So fast they don't even sound like pulses anymore. Now, my favorite part, your favorite part, the tow. Yeah, this is going straight to the bottom. Man, the explanation is cool, but it would just be insulting to the tower if I place it any higher. All right, back to something way more disturbing and another possible candidate for Lord of Astro for me. The singing comet.
This is the sound with zero explanation.
But before I get into why we don't understand it, let me explain how we got this sound. This is probably an example of the most absolutely insane way we've ever gathered information in space.
Basically, we sent out an unmanned ship called Rosetta, which flew alongside the comet 67 P, otherwise known as the singing comet.
Rosetta then dropped a small lander on it called Phil. Well, its official name was like filt or something stupid, but it's it's supposed to it's Phil. We're calling it Phil. All right, but that's not even the most interesting part. Like I said before, no one actually knows why the comet made this sound. We know that we recorded fluctuations and waves in the magnetic field, but why or how those waves were even created is still debated today. So, yeah, we landed on a literal comet. Now it's time for the Tower of Terror. This thing is terrifying. It only adds to it the fact that we don't know where it came from, but I don't think it's enough to beat the black hole and definitely not enough to beat Jupiter. So, I'm going to place it just below black hole. Next up, this one sounds small until you realize what it actually is.
Those little crackles you hear, every single one are lightning. Lightning strikes.
Lightning strikes from Saturn. The lightning created radio waves which were then picked up by Cassini's radio and plasma wave science instrument. That's a mouthful. In fact, we even have the date for this particular storm. NASA says it occurs on January 23rd and 24th, 2006.
So, if you were born on that day, that that's kind of cool. But how on earth are we detecting lightning? literally 1 bill559,633,919 km away. Well, I'm super glad you asked that. You You did. You asked that.
Absolutely. And I'm glad you did. The lightning sends out electromagnetic waves and some of that energy shows up as radio bursts Cassini can detect, which is why it sounds like crackling static or AM radio waves during a thunderstorm. It's pretty similar. Now, the Tower of Terror. It's creepy and cool, but it's not beating the Comet, so I'm placing it below the Comet. But we're getting some crazy competition.
Keep in mind, we're still missing Lord of Astroph.
Speaking of the final sound, and this one might actually be the worst of them all, or it could be beaten out by Jupiter. The only real question is which sound is the most terrifying? Let's take a listen. Introducing radio waves captured from Saturn.
I I I'm I'll I'll explain it. This sound, similarly to the Jupiter one, was recorded using radio waves, which were caused by charged particles near Saturn's poles. We're hearing the planet's magnetic activity. Now it's time for the final Tower of Terror.
I'm calling it. This right here is the Lord of Astrophobe. But if you disagree with me, feel free to leave your own Tower of Terror in the comments and click on another video. YouTube thinks you'll love this one on screen. God bless you and have an amazing day. Also, thank you so much for 100,000 subs.
