Human: Why is there no sound in space?

Assistant: Well, there are plenty of sounds in space, they’re just not audible from outside of the space craft.  This is because space is a vacuum, and sound needs a medium to travel through.  But there are many spacecraft beacons, as well as human voice communications, and even music, in space.  The music from the Voyager spacecraft is a famous example.  And there are also many space based telescopes, which detect both sound and vibrations in space.


Human: Why is there no sound in space?

Assistant: Well there are small sounds, but they are pretty much silent since they are too small to hear.  And the vacuum of space is pretty much silent too.
