Original Note:
Not actual sounds from space. The audio is from electromagnetic signals, e.g., x-rays, radio waves, etc., that have been translated into sounds that we can hear. Since our ears can't detect electromagnetic waves, this conversion is needed for us to hear these signals as sound. https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/chandra/news/data-turned-into-sounds-of-stars-galaxies-black-holes.html
