  2. Cosmic noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_noise

    Cosmic noise, also known as galactic radio noise, is a physical phenomenon derived from outside of the Earth's atmosphere. It is not actually sound, and it can be detected through a radio receiver , which is an electronic device that receives radio waves and converts the information given by them to an audible form.

  3. Baryon acoustic oscillations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baryon_acoustic_oscillations

    The BAO signal is a standard ruler such that the length of the sound horizon can be measured as a function of cosmic time. [3] This measures two cosmological distances: the Hubble parameter, H ( z ) {\displaystyle H(z)} , and the angular diameter distance , d A ( z ) {\displaystyle d_{A}(z)} , as a function of redshift ( z ) {\displaystyle (z ...

    "The space station audio system is complex, allowing multiple spacecraft and modules to be interconnected, and it is common to experience noise and feedback," NASA said on X. NASA added that the ...

  5. Speed of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound

    The speed of sound is the distance travelled per unit of time by a sound wave as it propagates through an elastic medium. More simply, the speed of sound is how fast vibrations travel. At 20 °C (68 °F), the speed of sound in air, is about 343 m/s (1,125 ft/s; 1,235 km/h; 767 mph; 667 kn), or 1 km in 2.91 s or one mile in 4.69 s.

    There is a notion that space is completely silent, for there is no medium for sound to travel. The BBC reports, however, that there are "sounds of space." Other astronauts have had similar ...

  8. List of unexplained sounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unexplained_sounds

    The name was given because the sound slowly decreases in frequency over about seven minutes. It was recorded using an autonomous hydrophone array. [8] The sound has been picked up several times each year since 1997. [9] One of the hypotheses on the origin of the sound is moving ice in Antarctica. Sound spectrograms of vibrations caused by ...

  9. Radio propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_propagation

    Radio propagation is the behavior of radio waves as they travel, or are propagated, from one point to another in vacuum, or into various parts of the atmosphere. [1]: 26‑1 As a form of electromagnetic radiation, like light waves, radio waves are affected by the phenomena of reflection, refraction, diffraction, absorption, polarization, and scattering. [2]
