Sounds of the Planets

I have found this practice of capturing electromagnetic vibrations from celestial objects in space and then converting them into sounds perceptible to human hearing very rewarding. I paraphrase the means of getting the raw audio source material:

"Devices like plasma wave antennas on Voyager and Hawk-Eye probes capture radio waves, which are then processed into sound frequencies we can hear."

Years back, there was a CD collection of NASA recordings of some of the planets in our Solar System.  It was a wonderful collection of audio thumbprints from some of our neighbors in space.

Orbital Drum???

 I just watched an old episode of "Nasa's Unexplained Files".  There was a story about an astronaut orbiting Earth solo in his space capsule.  Out of a relative calm, the astronaut heard loud banging on his vehicle!  The striking of the capsule's metallic surface from some unknown source went on for a small amount of time and severely frightened the astronaut who called out for a reply to whatever was responsible for this racket.  Seems pretty incredible but the astronaut was convinced that he had some manner of lifeform shadowing his mission and as a consequence, messing with his head, Big Time!  Eventually, the outer hull racket abated and no answers were to be had of who this potential intruder was, but, HOW CREEPY!!!! Was the space capsule being used as an Experimental Musical Instrument?  An Orbital Drum, if you will?  We can only speculate....

Here is a VideoGPT AI retelling of the situation in its own analysis!  Enjoy.
