What a beautiful Monday. Get outside and embrace the elements.
Fact of the day:
Can you hear anything in space?
No, you cannot hear any sounds in near-empty regions of space. Sound travels through the vibration of atoms and molecules in a medium (such as air or water). In space, where there is no air, the sound has no way to travel.
