Hubble Image of Galaxy Cluster Converted Into Sound

An image of a treasure trove of galaxies taken by the Hubble space telescope is converted directly into sound. Time flows from left to right and the frequency of sound changes from bottom to top, so that objects near the bottom of the image are heard as the lowest tones. Compact galaxies and a few foreground stars create brief tones while elongated spiral galaxies produce longer notes that can change pitch. Listen for the greater number of galaxies near the center of the image (in the mid-frequency range) where they cluster around a massive elliptical galaxy. The entire cluster is known as RXC J0142.9+4438 and this image was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope on August 13, 2018. The cluster's enormous mass distorts spacetime and acts like a giant magnifying lens, giving us a closer (although distorted) view of galaxies that lie far beyond the cluster.

Each longer blip you hear is an entire galaxy. I love that.

Sounds like that one spongebob episode when they went to the future 🤣

[roninquintero]

Lowkey sound like the sounds squidward heard in the future spongebob episode

[voyager]

I hear this every day all the way out here btw

[BlindEmpress]

This actually sounds very satisfying. A 10 hour loop of this could maybe put me straight to sleep

[_water]

Just imagine floating...and...drifting off hearing this...beautiful...

[oldytacctdontbemean]

Sounds like something you would hear on an alien spaceship in my opinion.

Use me as a “thank you YouTube algorithm” button

[pedromourente]

can the audio file be switched back to an RGP image?

The only reason I found this was the meme where it started playing Moonlight

[Emosauce]

I guess it's kinda like a music box where the cylinder has ridges on it and as it turns, the teeth make the "music"

[libertym]

This sounds like when ur class is right next to the music room when they start playing flutes

[ugelee_]

This reminds me of that meme









I still see ur shadows in my room
Cant take back the love that i gave u

*YOU'VE SUMMON THE CLUSTER*

When you going to the moon and the stars start speaking space

[Aspyrus]

Sounds like something out of earthbound

[bloodmooneddotavi]

Yes this is what I’m lookin for!
You are an absolute genius!

Just imagine you are alone in the galaxy and you hear that. Just creepy

[noahb]

Literally no one:
Minecraft ambient noises:

[lainalue_]

these are the kind of things that scare me, like the whole universe at stake kinda scare and just imagining what could be out there or should i say what is out there
