Radio Astronomy: The Radio Station from Space

What does space sound like? The Radio Astronomy project broadcasts audio intercepted from space live  over the internet and on a traditional radio station. Radio telescopes pick up all kinds of signals from solar flares to the planet Jupiter’s interaction with its moon, which produce a symphony of strange clicks, hisses and pops. While to the untrained ear these sounds may seem like static, they actually tell a rich story about outer space which can’t be gleaned visually.
