According to the Listening Monks, it sounds like "One, two, one, two, three, four."

Agreed, that would probably muted. Yes, definitely would probably muted.

For John Cage, the sound would be SROOOOOM .

Sharp Music Theory and Astrophysics staff members approve, hoping their key mutual small talk will sound natural and allow them to score with each other at their flat.

Yes, the vacuum that would have existed when all matter and space was compressed into a very small but rapidly expanding area.  Or, not a vacuum.

nmemkha: How can the sound of The Big Bang be muted by "the vacuum of space" when "space" was created by The Big Bang itself?

Nor that during the early expansion matter was dense enough to no be considered a vacume.... but I wonder if a soup made of subatomic particles transfer sound waves?

Reading Fark threads is like watching "Wheel of Fortune" with the sound turned off.

"They say it all started out with a big bang. But, what I wonder is, was it a big bang or did it just seem big because there wasn't anything else to drown it out at the time?"

People already know that this is the soud of the big bang.

sorry its their rules:
IF NO ONE IS THERE TO HEAR IT, IT DIDN'T MAKE A SOUND!
sorry for yelling.

Didn't the Beatles already do that?

The data used for this "project" was data of the cosmic microwave background, which was emitted about 360 kyr after the Big Bang.  By which time there was plenty of vacuum.

I think it sounds like FOOP.

Why shouldn't he make up a sound for a made-up event? Seems fitting.

Its depends on if we are talking about sound internal or external to the nucleating universe. If internal, your question is certainly valid. I assumed the sound propagation discussed was external to event. In that case, the "nothingness" the universe expanded intocould have been filled with raspberry jam for all we know.

"Expanded into" implies dimensionality - which is a function of something that exists. Nothingness is nothing, and therefore could not be "expanded into." The expansion of the universe created dimensionality.

Maybe. We don't know if the nucleating universe "pushed" something out of the way to be. We can't know because it would exist outside of the  structure of space-time. You are making an assumption that is impossible to prove.

The definition of "universe" is "everything that exists. So if there is "something" that exists that is pushed out of the way, it is by definition part of the universe. Postulating multiple universii in a "multiverse" simply expands the definition of "universe" to be that multiverse... with "bubble universii" (including our own) existing inside it.
