Sound waves produced on the Earth cannot reach an orbiting satellite.

Sound needs a material substance to travel through. But in order to remain

in orbit, a satellite must scrupulously avoid passing through any material

substance, lest it lose kinetic energy to friction, and plummet to Earth in a

fiery display of utter finality.
