[Embarrassed] Um... Thanks. I didn't know that. I meant that there wasn't anyone up there to hear him. Why don't sound waves travel in space?Sound is vibration waves traveling through a medium, like air or water or walls. Since there is no air in space, there is nothing to vibrate, so there are no sound waves.
