Sound travels in waves like light or heat does, but unlike them, sound travels by making molecules vibrate. So, in order for sound to travel, there has to be something with molecules for it to travel through. On Earth, sound travels to your ears by vibrating air molecules. In deep space, the large empty areas between stars and planets, there are no molecules to vibrate. There is no sound there.

What kind of noise does the sun make?

The sun is situated in outer space, which is a vacuum. Sound does not travel through a vacuum, so from where we sit, the sun is silent. It makes no noise. If you (impossibly) were sitting on the sun, it would be very noisy indeed, with enormous pressures and continual explosions like Hydrogen bombs. Your ears would be destroyed in microseconds by the intensity of the noise. The sun does make a lot of a different kind of noise. This is electronic noise. The sun makes noise across the whole radio frequency spectrum, which can be picked up on radios.


What does a space shuttle sound like in space?

There is no air in space and because of that, the noise it makes can not transmit elsewhere. The sound it makes is well noticeable inside the craft though. Sound moves through the materials the shuttle is built from and then it starts transmitting these sounds into the air on board, and this noise is very well audible. I am sorry to say, but I can not explain the sound it actually makes. maybe there is something on Nasa homepage regarding this.
