Quite easy to understand, really. Sound needs a material substance to travel through

from place to place. The one we're most familiar with is air, but sound travels very

easily through steel, glass, wood, water, etc. There's no material substance in space,

so sound just can't travel from place to place. And that's all there is to the whole story.
