The Sound the Universe Makes : TED Talk by Janna Levin

Perfect post to end the day with, and go to sleep.

I loved this video because of how much it triggered my  imagination and thoughts into how possibly the universe could have a soundtrack, and what it could sound like. Days go by so fast now, I feel, it’s like I never take as much time as I like to think and dwell on these amazing natural features of the world, that are so far, but exist. There’s nothing like dreaming and picturing in our head how such an amazing thing like the galaxy has a life of its own, while we are down here living our crazy busy stressful lives, while the universe will live on after us, until some day at least.

Turn to min 10.50 to hear the prediction of the sound of the universe by Janna’s research team.

We think of space as a silent place. But physicist Janna Levin says the universe has a soundtrack — a sonic composition that records some of the most dramatic events in outer space. (Black holes, for instance, bang on spacetime like a drum.) An accessible and mind-expanding soundwalk through the universe.

Good night!
