Can you listen to music in space?

No, you cannot hear any sounds in near-empty regions of space. Sound travels through the vibration of atoms and molecules in a medium (such as air or water). In space, where there is no air, sound has no way to travel.

Do earphones work in space?

In space, there is (effectively) no air. Therefore, nothing that uses sound works in space, and you cannot hear any sound in space. As an exception to the above, within a pressurised container, suitable for sustaining human life, sound and your headphones would work normally.

Can we listen sound in space?

Sound does not travel at all in space. The vacuum of outer space has essentially zero air. Because sound is just vibrating air, space has no air to vibrate and therefore no sound. If you are sitting in a space ship and another space ship explodes, you would hear nothing.

Why is there no air in space?

After a point where gravity is no longer acting forcefully, the air molecules (oxygen) are no longer attracted to Earth. Thus, the molecules are further away from each other, often so far apart, in fact, that we say that there is “No Air present” or label it a “Vacuum”.

What happens if 2 black holes meet?

It is possible for two black holes to collide. Once they come so close that they cannot escape each other's gravity, they will merge to become one bigger black hole. Such an event would be extremely violent. Even when simulating this event on powerful computers, we cannot fully understand it.

Why can a dog hear a dog whistle but a human Cannot?

The hearing range of dogs is almost double that. The dog whistle, which sounds silent to humans, produces sounds in the 50-kilohertz range that dogs can hear. Dogs have better hearing than humans both because they can hear these high-frequency sounds, and they can hear sounds from farther away.

Why is space dark?

Because space is a near-perfect vacuum — meaning it has exceedingly few particles — there's virtually nothing in the space between stars and planets to scatter light to our eyes. And with no light reaching the eyes, they see black.

Does space have an end?

No, they don't believe there's an end to space. However, we can only see a certain volume of all that's out there. Since the universe is 13.8 billion years old, light from a galaxy more than 13.8 billion light-years away hasn't had time to reach us yet, so we have no way of knowing such a galaxy exists.
