What do black holes sound like? NASA releases recording of black hole in distant galaxy



NASA released new audio approximating the sound of a black hole at the center of the Perseus galaxy cluster, which experts discovered had a pitch over a “million billion times deeper” than the limits of human hearing, making it too deep to be heard.

Light? Yes.
Heat? Yes, to a degree (pun intended).
Some of the effects of gravitational waves? Yes.
Sound though? Not really.
