A drum in Earth would create sound vibrations that travel through air, which allow us to hear it. In outer space, where there is no air, the drum would not create sound as there is no medium to carry the vibrations. The sound of the drum would only be heard by astronauts through the vibrations traveling through the materials they are touching.

How would a drum be played on Earth sound different in outer space?

A drum played on Earth produces sound through vibrations in the air, which travel as sound waves. In outer space, where there is a near vacuum and no air to transmit those vibrations, the sound of the drum would not be heard at all. The drum's impact and vibration would still occur, but without a medium like air, the sound waves cannot propagate, making it silent in the vastness of space.


Why is it impossible for sound to travel through outer space?

Sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or solid surfaces, to travel through. In outer space, there is no medium for sound waves to travel through, so sound cannot propagate in the vacuum of space.

That depends on what you mean by "outer space". The moon is outside the Earth's atmosphere and therfore "in space" but it is orbiting the Earth and therfore hardly "outer".


Could a huge sound speaker be made to push things around outer space?

No, because sound cannot travel in outer space.


Is outer space and the universe the same?

Does it rain in space?

Not in outer space; but it does rain on Earth and Earth is in space so in a sense it does.


Can you hear any sounds in space?

In space, sound does not travel because it is a vacuum, meaning there are no molecules to carry sound waves. Astronauts can communicate using radio transmissions inside their spacecraft, but they cannot hear sound like we do on Earth as there is no medium for sound to travel through in outer space.
