Soular sounds

I'm sure you guys have noticed more research conducted on cosmic sounds. Apparently the Cassini spacecraft has been picking up audio frequencies and sending them back here on earth.

Some of them are just damn cool...

Crazy sci-fi sounds for Enceladus (one of saturn's moons) This link came from this WIRED article.


Some changing frequencies from Saturn


And this is from a much less reliable source (youtube) but kind of cool. I heard both these sounds a few months ago, essentially, from electromagnetic vibrations and a little audio tweaking to make the frequencies audible scientists found something that sounds like an orchestra and something that sounds almost like speech.

For some, these sounds serve as evidence that the harmonics we hear as humans take on much more significant value than we give them as far as the Cosmos are concerned. Other's think they're simply flukes. And some just don't care.
