Chorus Radio Waves within Earth's Atmosphere

Saturn’s ocean-bearing moon also bears some spooky sounds! Here’s one captured by our Cassini spacecraft.

Cassini: Enceladus Sound

Saturn is a source of intense radio emissions, which were monitored by our Cassini spacecraft. The radio waves are closely related to the auroras near the poles of the planet. These auroras are similar to Earth's northern and southern lights. This is an audio file of radio emissions from Saturn.

Cassini: Saturn Radio Emissions #1

Voyager: Lightning on Jupiter

Cassini: Saturn Radio Emissions #2

Juno will improve our understanding of the solar system's beginnings by revealing the origin and evolution of Jupiter.

Plasmaspheric Hiss

This recording is a laboratory reconstruction of the sounds heard by Huygens' microphones - the probe that entered the atmosphere of Saturn's moon Titan. Several sound samples, taken at different times during the descent, are here combined together and give a realistic reproduction of what a traveller on board Huygens would have heard during one minute of the descent through Titan's atmosphere.

Speeding Through Titan's Haze

On approach to Saturn, data obtained by the Cassini spacecraft are already posing a puzzling question: How long is the day on Saturn?

Scientists Find That Saturn's Rotation Period Is A Puzzle

Using data from NASA's THEMIS mission, scientists have discovered that when the magnetopause -- the outer boundary of Earth's protective magnetic field -- is struck by a jet of plasma from the Sun, it vibrates like a drum. Waves echo back and forth along its surface, much like they do on top of a drumhead.  Read the full story: https://go.nasa.gov/2RUS7Le
