Hearing is believing. 👂 Sonification is a process that translates visual data into sound. Listen to Webb’s image of galaxy M74: Its large, medium and small features are represented by low, medium and high pitches, respectively, with the brightest stars heard as percussion.

The musical mushroom” video isn’t magic, it’s data sonification. A PlantWave device reads tiny electrical fluctuations in the mushroom’s cells and converts them into MIDI notes. You’re hearing its real bioelectric rhythm turned into sound, life, translated into music.

A symphony of space! 🎵 This sonification of the galaxy NGC 6872 translates data from Chandra Observatory and Hubble into music. Volume is mapped to brightness, and the pitch is related to the distance from the center; the farther away, the higher the pitch:

NGC 4654, which jostles among many other galaxies in the Virgo Cluster, is a curious spiral galaxy. One side is rounded and the opposite side is stretched into a long trail of gas (beyond this image). This is caused by ram pressure stripping. As NGC 4654 speeds through the cluster 💨 it rams through the intracluster medium, which squashes its leading edge and tugs at its gas, stretching it out across space! 1/2
