No, no. Without air, you hear nothing, although
without air, that is seldom your main concern.

Why is it impossible to hear sound in space?
sound is created by through creating compression and decompression zones in the air and air particles. there is no air in space, therefore we can not make compression and decompression zones, thus stating that there is no sound in space as it can not be created without air. good enough answer? :)
Why can't you hear sound in space?
Sound travels as pressure waves through air. There is no air in space so no sound.
Why we cannot speak in space and cannot hear?
We can't speak or hear in space because there is no air the sound can travel through.
Why cant you hear the exploding meteors in the sky?
Depends on how high they are. Sound neeeds something - like air - to travel through. If they're high enough there's no or not enough air for sound to travel, and you won't hear a thing. If they make if down far enough in one piece, you might hear them.
Can we talk to another person on the moon?
No, because there is no air on the moon. Sound waves rely on air to travel, and without it there is no sound.
Can there be sound without anyone to hear it?
Sound is a vibration (wave) transmitted through the atmosphere. It does not need to be perceived by an ear to exist. Without air--as in space--no one can hear you scream. That's catchy! Subsonic vibrations, such as an earthquake, can be felt by the body, but if you hear it, then the vibration is being transfered through the air.
What happens to air as sound travels through air?
Sound is transmitted from a source to the surrounding air particles, which vibrate or collide and pass the sound energy along to our ears. Without any particles to vibrate we wouldn't hear the sound.
Why is the moon a quiet place?
There is no atmosphere (air) on the Moon, sound comes to our ears though the air and this without any air you could not hear anything.
What happens to air as sound travels through it?

Can you make sounds without air?
Yes you can make sound without air, because sound can travel through all the forms of matter, gases, liquid, solid, and plasma. If you submerged yourself underwater, you'd still be able to hear sound.
Why don't you feel a push of air when you hear the sound?
When we hear sound we do not feel the pushing the air becasue the sound waves are in form of comprestional waves.
Why can't a sound wave travel from a satellite to earth?
A sound wave cannot travel through space because there is no air in space. Without a medium such as air, you can't hear sounds

Does sound travels through air?
We are in air, and we can hear each other. Thus, sound can travel in air.Yes. A sound wave can travel through air (gases), liquids, and solids.
Why can't you hear sound in space?
Sound travels as pressure waves through air. There is no air in space so no sound.
How does you ear hear sound?
Sound is a mechanism that is carried out by a median which the air particles that carries the sound waves to our ear that we actually hear. There are different sizes of sound waves released by different frequencies and then carried at different speed by the air particles to our ear. Without a median, it is impossible to hear anything around you, like if we take "OUTER SPACE OR VACUUM" into consideration, there is existence of median or no movement of air particles that could carry the sound waves. So as a result what actually our ear detect is the sound waves brought to your ears by a median.
Where is sound produced?
sound can be produced in any medium - air, water and solids too, but most of the sounds we hear are through air. Animals like dolphins produce sound in water and hear it there.
