No. Sound requires a medium through which it can travel. Since space is near a vacuum, there is no medium for sound.

Can you hear a fart in outer space?

Define what you mean by in space. If you mean outside the atmospheric level known as the mesosphere then the answer is kinda. You could, and should, attempt to expel the gasses within you while unprotected. You have about 9 seconds of conscious thought to do so. Then you pass out and maybe a minute and a half later you'll die. Being in any self-contained environment would also allow you to burp. So if you go into space in a suit, a ship, a sealed car or plane, or a giant hamster ball then burp away.


Is it possible to hear an explosion in outer space?

No, sound cannot travel in the vacuum of outer space because it requires a medium, such as air, to propagate. Explosions in space can still release energy in the form of light and radiation, but they would not produce any sound.
