During the medieval period, various instruments were used to measure celestial objects and collect data on phenomena in space. These instruments played a crucial role in the advancement of astronomical knowledge during this period, however their accuracy and sophistication were limited compared to today's equipment. These medieval instruments never captured the sound of space, for example.

Sound does not propagate in space. The universe is made up of a vacuum and human ears perceive sounds through waves in the air. What happens is that celestial bodies radiate electromagnetic waves and their frequency can be easily compared with the frequency of the waves that propagate through the air. We humans are not able to hear these electromagnetic waves, but NASA has developed what is called RADIOASTRONOMY. A study of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by celestial bodies is done using specific equipment such as a giant radio transmitter, which captures the electromagnetic waves and translates them into sound in a form that is audible to our ears.
