The “Sound” Of Cassini’s Trip Below The Rings Of Saturn

This video from JPL and NASA shows what the “sound” of the space below the rings of Saturn is like – more correctly, what the particle and magnetic sensors on the craft detect, indicating the vastly different environments outside and inside the ring zones around the gas giant.

Again, this is what happens when you convert the data into an audible form – this isn’t what it actually sounds like there, so keep your conspiracy nut comments to a minimum; this type of conversion of data give it a more tangible way to be consumed by the average person, something that anyone can understand as being different when compared and contrasted.

As always, enjoy this somewhat odd, but still scientifically interesting clip.
