Earth’s magnetic 'song' during calm space weather conditions by European Space Agency published on 2019-11-18T14:50:53Z ESA’s Cluster mission has recorded the magnetic waves generated in the magnetic foreshock above Earth – the first region of our planet’s magnetic environment that solar wind particles encounter – during calm space weather conditions. This audio file contains a 'sonification' of the data, where sounds were obtained by transforming the frequencies of these magnetic waves into audible signals.

And they mostly sound the same :D 2021-10-07T19:05:51Z Comment by Les Stuck This is not a song, because there are no vocals. But it is quite wonderful to hear magnetic waves transposed to audio frequencies. I guess the foreshock region is inherently chaotic, which explains why this sounds like white noise going through an FFT. 2020-01-23T21:08:45Z Comment by Alexander König 9 Sounds as if the earth is screaming out of pain, in the background. 2019-11-24T21:20:20Z Comment by Renato Caruso shone brightly 2019-11-23T04:55:10Z Comment by user105380469 Master analisa 2019-11-21T23:38:47Z Comment by Alexander Underwood Forbidden Planet Anyone? 2019-11-19T17:48:19Z
