The Mysterious “Space Roar” (Video)

(Before It's News)

 

 

(N.Morgan) There’s been a mysterious “Space Roar, being heard by NASA’s ARCADE, A balloon they sent into space to listen to the universe, as it were. Instead, it picked up a monstrous roar.

Could these roars have something to do with the other odd things happening in Space?

Space is typically thought of as a very quiet place. But one team of astronomers has found a strange cosmic noise that booms six times louder than expected. The roar is from the distant cosmos. Nobody knows what causes it. Of course, sound waves can’t travel in a vacuum (which is what most of space is), or at least they  can’t very efficiently. But radio waves can.

But the newly detected signal, described here today at the 213th meeting of the American Astronomical Society, is far louder than astronomers expected. There is “something new and interesting going on in the universe,” said Alan Kogut of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.

 

(And NO, it’s NOT ISON!!!)

  • So Obama has cut so much from NASA that they are now consigned to sending balloons up and listening for noise?

    What’s next a massive slingshot to launch satellites?

  • What about a sample of the roar?

    • Roger that! It seems that the video has very little, if anything, to do with this article

      • The video was about the event..

        There are so many articles on here that are non-sense.

        I’m one of the few that actually posts REAL news and I’m getting nit picked, rather than productive input. :roll:

        Please refer to all of the other articles being shoved down our throats for those kind of comments, MJ12 or whoever you really are..

        Lots of multiple personalities on here these days.. :wink:

    • Hi, dimitri, NASA didn’t release the actual sound track, I’m sorry to say.

      If I do find it, I will include it this post to redo it with new info.

      • WHY would NASA not release the audio? They released the audio of the sound of the sun! How long have they had this audio? Why weren’t these radio waves picked up by space missions and converted to audio? Wouldn’t a fair assumption be that they DID, but are just now (partially) releasing this info? Or is the inference that this is a brand new sound not there before?

  • Bored… :sad:

    • Sorry, Atlanticobr, you are bored.

      I hope your day gets better for you.

      Boredom is a symptom of being mentally under stimulated, perhaps a mental challenge is in order for you? :wink:

      • slamdance13

        Wow. Really? 90% of what you post is crap copied from other ppl. Now you want to insult ppl who see through your garbage? Drop dead Morgan.

    • Death of the CRAB

      Is that the son of Mr. Wizard who is screaming in the video and OD ing on energy drinks?

  • Burst Transmission. The aliens are out there.

  • Probably that incoming starship or stargate or whatever that light was that seems to be entering orbit around the sun recently. Rocket exhaust tends to be loud.

  • It’s probably just a space bear, or a moon goat. They find it especially difficult to obtain marshmallows at this time of year, and can be quite aggressive if disturbed.

    • UberNuts

      You forgot Comet Monkeys.
      Everyone forgets comet Monkeys.
      They don’t like marshmallows, though.

  • I got tired listening to the yakity yak on more than half the video. Didn’t hear any roar I wonder if it got dispersed in the universe. Lol!!

  • Forgive my “stupidity” or “ignorance”. But how does SOUND travel in the vacuum of space??? :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

    • slamdance13

      Same way it travels through the vacuum in N.Morgan’s head.

  • Space is actually very noisy, filled with whistles, booms and screeches.

    http://www.nasa.gov/vision/universe/features/halloween_sounds.html

  • Given the rapidly declining state of mankind maybe its the sound of an angel trumpet blast.

  • UberNuts

    The primordial fart of the universe… parp!

  • UberNuts

    I just googled the event and it happened way back in 2009!
    I thought this was BIN, not Well After The Fact.

  • The roar is the giant sucking sound of the vacuum of space. :razz:

    Think giant Hoover!

  • I hear Obama is going to hire Wiley Coyote as the next NASA Administrator.

  • The guy in the video I will like to punch in the face! That will give him something to talk about.

  • You realise that the background of force/space, is within equilibrium pressure hold = 3, thus a sphere in a vacuum. <cube and sphere, a cylinda to hold in place, hell, up in the halls of greater heaven.

    Number 8 adds to its infinite setting… 0 o 0

    And they tried in vanity to rule this place not hell, and being bound to it, in context of self worth.

    Spoke dialect of divinity says so.. ah um.

  • Its the engines of that foreign SPACESHIP, you goofy scientists! USE YOUR BRAINS! Engines ROAR! (I certainly do not think it is a space LION!) WAKE UP!!! THEY ARE COOOOMING!

  • Disappointed that there was no sound of the roar
