The noises have been captured by various probes from the 1970s onwards, and include a range of pulses, roars, hisses, and some occasional soothing commentary from NASA personnel. A lot of the sounds are underwhelming, but others are pretty good, and so we've coupled our favourites with some fun facts.
You might think space is silent, but you're wrong. Space is vibrating with a range of electromagnetic waves that can be turned into sound waves and fed through speakers. The results all sound like the inhouse sound effects on iMovie, but when you consider you're listening to the sound of a probe flying through a dust cloud, or the roar of Jupiter's magnetic field, the sounds get interesting.

I used audio recordings of NASA and stretch (100x) it all sounds from original source, for deep listening experience (no editing/fx : just fade-in / fade-out and normalize / loudness)

As millions of people across the United States experienced a total eclipse as the umbra, or moon’s shadow passed over them, only six people witnessed the umbra from space. Viewing the eclipse from orbit were NASA’s Randy Bresnik, Jack Fischer and Peggy Whitson, ESA (European Space Agency’s) Paolo Nespoli, and Roscosmos’ Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin and Sergey Ryazanskiy. The space station crossed the path of the eclipse three times as it orbited above the continental United States at an altitude of 250 miles.
