Can the Sun Produce Sound Waves That Travel Through Space?

šŸ’” The Answer

  • The Sun generates low-frequency sound waves from internal turbulence.
  • These waves are detected by scientists using helioseismology techniques.
  • Sound cannot travel through the vacuum of space, so we cannot hear them.
  • Vibrations from the waves provide insight into the Sun's interior structure.
