The comet that just got landed on sounds like Predator
The Rosetta spacecraft and its Philae lander have recently landed on the Churyumov-Gerasimenko comet - pretty common knowledge now, with it being a remarkable human first and a fascinating leap in space exploration.
But did you know it sings? It sings like Predator.
The ESA have added a statement alongside the creepy revelation:
"Rosetta’s Plasma Consortium (RPC) has uncovered a mysterious ‘song’ that Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is singing into space. The comet seems to be emitting a ‘song’ in the form of oscillations in the magnetic field in the comet’s environment. It is being sung at 40-50 millihertz, far below human hearing, which typically picks up sound between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. To make the music audible to the human ear, the frequencies have been increased in this recording. Original data credit: ESA/Rosetta/RPC/RPC-MAG. This sonification of the RPC-Mag data was compiled by German composer Manuel Senfft."
