The Real Sound of a Neutron Star Captured by NASA ⚡🌌

This star spins 716 times every second, moving at 24% the speed of light.
Just one teaspoon of it weighs more than Mount Everest — a dead star so dense it defies imagination.
And yes… this is the real sound of a neutron star, recorded by NASA itself. 🎧

  1. It is in fact a modulated radiowave that is caught by radiotelescopes, The resulting sound is a representation of the frequency of the pulses, not the actual sound wave generated in space.

  2. Sound doesn't travel in space. So, it's not the actual sound of a Neutron Star. Scientists turn non-audible electromagnetic waves into audible sounds using sonification so we may perceive through sound.

    Please don't get me wrong. It's quite awesome; we are lucky to hear this, not hating or anything, just sharing what I learned a few days ago. These are pulsar waves, which travel thru space, radio waves of the Electromagnetic spectrum.

    Also, as @andybatmanparky's insightful comment in the replies states, it would take a long long time for sound to travel from the Neutron star to earth even if there were particles in space. Humanity would go extinct before the sound reached earth given the speed of sound.

  3. Wooow 😮 kudos to the guy who flew out there to it, landed on it, got out of the spaceship, scooped up a teaspoon of it then put it on a scale and weighed it!

  4. This was mentioned in the Quran more than 1400 years ago in chapter 86: By the sky and the Pulsar. And what will make you realize what the Pulsar is? The Piercing Star.
