How does sound proof glass work?
Sound proof glass is actually two panes of glass that have a vacuum between them. Since sound is a wave, it need a medium through which to travel. That's why astronauts can't talk to each other in space without the use of microphones. With no atter, sound can't be transmitted. So the vacuum between the panes of glass creates an area of nothingness where sound cannot be transmitted, and makes it soundproof.
What is an empty space with no or very few particles?
A hard vacuum or interstellar space.
What is a completely empty space?
A completely empty space is called a vacuum. A vacuum does not even have air. Sound cannot travel through a vacuum.
Can sound waves move through space?
space is a vacuum, and sound can't move through a vacuum.
What does a vacuum not contain?
A vacuum by definition is an area in space devoid of matter.
Do PS2 microphones work with the PS3?

Why wouldn't you be able to hear a sound in outer space?
sound doesn't work a vacuum
Can sound travle to space?

How Do Electromagnetic Waves Work?
Electromagnetic waves are waves which can travel through the vacuum of outer space.
Does a vacuum cleaner work in space?
No. First of all it wouldn't stay on the ground. and why would you need to vacuum?A vacuum cleaner depends on a difference in air pressure to operate. With no air pressure in space, there could be no difference in air pressure and thus no operation.Inside a manned spacecraft, which is usually pressurized a vacuum cleaner will obviously work just fine; especially for collecting and disposing of water globules. Also the standard NASA space toilet uses a modification of a vacuum cleaner for urine collection.

How do microphones in a home work?
It is often your TV that has the microphone.
How did they use space cameras in space?
I'm sure they use digital cameras in space. The camera would have to be specially designed to work in a vacuum. Other than that, no problem.
What is an empty space with no or very few particles?
A hard vacuum or interstellar space.
How does a satellites move in space when its vacuum?
well space is like a vacuum you cant escape it and sound wave do not travel in space but space isn't literally a vacuum so they move by rockets and the gravity of earth
