They are moving through the air molecules. Just like air and just like molecules you can't see them. They are invisible.
^This guy isn't entirely correct. We can see air molecules in some instances.. this is the reason the sky appears blue to us. Air molecules reflect a greater amount of the blue sector of the visible light spectrum on most occasions. Sometimes they even reflect other colors... have you ever seen a sunset.. and the orangish-red background. Now I don't know if sound waves reflects any of the light outside of the visible spectrum.
What else can I help you with?
Why cant you hear each other in space?
Sound waves require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In space, there is a near-vacuum with very few particles to carry sound waves. Therefore, without a medium to propagate through, sound cannot travel in space.
Why you cannot hear the sound of explosion produce in the sun?
Sound waves cannot travel through space because space is a vacuum, meaning there is no medium (like air or water) for sound waves to travel through. Since the Sun is in space, the sound of an explosion produced by the Sun cannot be heard on Earth.
What is something you cant see touch or feel but you can hear it?
Sound. Sound waves are vibrations that travel through a medium such as air and can be heard by our ears.
Why would a phone not make a sound in space?
You can't hear sound in space
Why cant you hear a sound behind a closed door?
Sound waves need a medium, like air, to travel through. When a door is closed, it blocks the movement of sound waves, preventing them from reaching your ears. This creates a barrier that reduces the transmission of sound and makes it difficult for you to hear noises from behind the closed door.
Why cant you hear each other in space?

If you got hit by something in outer space would you hear the sound or would you be unable to hear the sound?
Sound waves are mechanical waves, meaning they need a medium to travel through (solid, liquid, or gas). Space being a vacuum, mechanical waves will not travel so sounds cannot be heard in space.
Why can astronauts not hear one another when traveling in space?
The light waves they reflect travel through empty space but sound waves do not.
Why cant you here in space?
Because there is no atmosphere in space, therefore nothing can carry the sound waves of your vocal cords. Sound relies on pressure waves moving through air. Therefore, in the absolute vacuum of space, no sound can be heard at all.
Can you hear noise in space?
No. In a vacuum there is nothing for the sound waves to travel through.
Do you think you could hear your scream in space yes or no?
sound waves cannot travel through space
Why can you not hear a burp in space?
In space, there is no air or atmosphere for sound waves to travel through, so you wouldn't be able to hear a burp as there is no medium for sound to be transmitted. Sound requires particles such as air to vibrate and carry the sound waves, which is absent in the vacuum of space.
Why are we unable to hear sound in outer space?
There is no sound in outer space because space is a vacuum. Sound needs matter to travel through and vibrate in order for us to hear it. Air vibrates in our ears to make us hear sound. Since space has no air we wouldn't be able to hear anything.
Sound waves cannot travel in outer space True or false?
In space, nobody can hear you scream, but it doesn't mean there's no sounds up there. Black holes generate sound. There's always one nearby.
Do sound waves stop when losing hearing?
in a way, but there are still some there, humans just cant hear them.
What can you hear but can not see?
Sound waves
Why you cannot hear the sound of explosion produce in the sun?
Sound waves cannot travel through space because space is a vacuum, meaning there is no medium (like air or water) for sound waves to travel through. Since the Sun is in space, the sound of an explosion produced by the Sun cannot be heard on Earth.
