Yes! Occasionally there are moon quakes. This generates sound waves. However, a sound wave must travel through some medium. There is no atmosphere on the moon and so we don't hear these being emitted. You would have to put a listening device on the rocky dusty surface to "hear" the quakes. Sound travels well in solid material. I've always been able to listen to the valves in my car engine best by taking a cut off broom stick, touching the engine with it, and resting my ear on the other end of the broom stick.

Does sound travel in the atmosphere of the moon?

Yes, sound can travel in the atmosphere of the moon, but it would be very different from sound travel on Earth due to the moon's thin atmosphere. Sound waves would propagate through the moon's atmosphere much slower and with less intensity than on Earth. Additionally, the lack of air molecules on the moon means that sound would not be able to travel very far.


What is the speed of sound on the moon?

The speed of sound on the moon is about 1,640 meters per second, compared to around 343 meters per second on Earth. This difference is due to the moon's lack of atmosphere, which affects the propagation of sound waves.
