As the title says!

Check it out!

Don't expect symphonies or breakbeats though!

Black holes are the bassists of the universe, 57 octaves lower than a middle C - [url="http://science1.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2003/09sep_blackholesounds/"]http://science1.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2003/09sep_blackholesounds/[/url]

Presumably you couldn't hear it, not just because it's way below the audible frequency for humans, but because as space is a vacuum, there is no medium for the sound to travel through..?

In the link I posted it mentions how sound travels as electromagnetic vibrations, so you need special equipment to listen to it. But yeah also cos it's below our frequencies of hearing. Although my wife's voice is lower than that when she wakes up some mornings. Ha ha. I'm dead if she reads this!

There are also very low frequency radio waves produced in the earth's atmosphere. Mostly they are random static noise but sometimes 'whistlers' can be heard. There are a few dead links in the page below - the third link in the 'Sample Sounds' section has some nice whistlers.

NASA did not mention Pluto - I reckon it has got a dead spot, must be a bolt-on planet. :(
