Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
The ‘ghost’ sound recorded by the Juno spacecraft from the largest moon Jupiter, Ganymede is called a song similar to the legendary British band, The Beatles.
Previously, the Juno spacecraft belonging to the American Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) managed to record what they called a ‘ghost’ sound last June 7.
In post Facebook on its official account, NASA got a lot of responses from netizens. One netizen called the sound from the moon similar to one of the Beatles songs.
“Listening. Sounds like a Beatles album,” Rick Tosches wrote in a Facebook comment, referring to the song on the White Album “Revolution 9.”
Other comments from netizens referred to Ganymede’s voice as a new song from Sonny John Moore or better known as Skrillex.
“Has Skrillex released a new song?” said Mat Barry in the comments.
In addition, other netizens attributed the sound to the popular film Star Trek.
“Again, Star Trek is right!” said another netizen, Michelle Church Guzinski, as quoted from Gazette Net.
This audio recording captured by the Juno spacecraft consists of a series of “beeps” and “bloops” at different frequencies.
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory explained that the 50-second audio recording was obtained from data Juno collected during his traverse to Ganymede.
Ganymede is the largest natural moon or satellite in the solar system and the only moon that has its own magnetic field.
Ganymede itself has a diameter of 3,280 miles or about 5,262 kilometers, this size is even larger than the closest planet to the Sun, Mercury and the dwarf planet Pluto.
Scott Bolton, a physicist at the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, called the sound of Ganymede quite wild.
“The soundtrack is wild enough to make you feel as if you’re driving as Juno sails past Ganymede for the first time in more than two decades,” he said. Science Alert.
“If you listen closely, you can hear a sudden change to a higher frequency around the midpoint of the recording, indicating the entry of a different region in Ganymede’s magnetosphere,” he added.
