Sound cannot travel in a vacuum (empty space) because there is no medium through which soundwaves can travel upon. This is why if you were to scream in space no sound would be made (well except maybe in your mind! ha!) well anyways, that is also why the Star Wars movies, and some other sci-fi movies that have laser fights in space are innaccurate because no sound would be made from the lasers (also because there is no gravity in empty space the vehicles would move much differently...but that is a whole new concept!) Anyways, so sound needs a medium to travel and so far, no medium has been found.... THAT IS LEFT TO BE DISCOVERED!!!! YEAH!!!!
