Jupiter makes sounds?

I found this video that shows some really strange sounds coming from Jupiter which I've never seen or heard of before. The video says that sound does exist in space as electromagnetic vibrations. I can believe this, however I am not studied on this at all, so maybe someone else could confirm or deny this. Listen to these sounds though...my god thats strange!

Rare Walt Disney Space series

Rare Walt Disney Space series from 1955, speculating about going into Space. Remember, more than 50 years ago, Sputnik hadn't even gone up yet!

Let's just hope that Bush doesn't/didn't actually say that.

That explains everything

Brilliant! Brought back some good (and some not-so-good) memories of my university days there! I've forgotten everything I learned about calculus over the past 10 years, but it's surprising how quickly it all comes back with a hyperactive maths geek shouting it out at you! :speakcool:

Who knew you could make a whole song out of those old Volcinicity ads?

Hey we should have an orbiter film festival, everyone makes an film with orbiter in it, and all the moderators Tex and Martin judge it. If they want to ofcorse.

What this is, Tex, is radio waves coming from the magnetic field of Jupiter. Charged particles from the sun interact witht he field and cause it to vibrate at frequencies which can be picked by instruments on nearby spacecraft. These random signals can be heard if you send through a speaker after some procesing. Do a search for "sounds of Saturn". Cassini recorded some signals that sound like effects from the movie Forbidden Planet, and if you crank them up in the dark they spook you out bigtime.

BTW, any planet with a magnetic field does this, including Earth. Get a shortwave radio and check it out.

Away from Orbiter, still in space, this blend of Holst music with MER-2004 animations from NASA-JPL is superb

Finally, two BBC/Discovery Channel documentaries to blow your minds
Parallel Universes (didn't know Michio Kaku was such a good ice skater)
Part 1 http://youtube.com/watch?v=gWIyam5cAko
part 2: http://youtube.com/watch?v=aBv5gWEAiDc
part 3: http://youtube.com/watch?v=0_vTXAMRhhc
part 4: http://youtube.com/watch?v=-BqrjqhP_nE
part 5: http://youtube.com/watch?v=XF0NpUdPCFU

And a three-parter on the Large Hadron Collider
part 1: http://youtube.com/watch?v=_fJ6PMfnz2E
part 2: http://youtube.com/watch?v=MQNPpeVvZ9w
part 3: http://youtube.com/watch?v=_XbKZwXK-3c

Warning to red-blooded males. You may find yourself falling for super-brain, rock-climbing blonde physicist Lisa Randall, and start humming "Fly Me to the 11th Dimension" every time she comes on. Female viewers may feel the same way about Prof Kaku, I don't know.

I love YouTube. Unlike TV, where you are forced to dumb down at all times, YouTube allows you to choose between smart and dumb at will - and yes, I like the dumb stuff too, sometimes.

Here's dumb but funny: hand-farting maestro The Manualist, aka Gerry Phillips, plays a selection of musical favourites (classical to rock to soul).
