And just to break my own record for longest video, here is all of the #Voyager 1 PWS #SpaceAudio for March 7, 1979, as the spacecraft continues to recede from Jupiter. (Over 8 hours 24 minutes!)

I was working with these data recently, and realized I've never done a #SpaceAudio release. Here is all of the #Voyager 1 PWS waveform data collected on March 6, 1979, as the spacecraft was leaving Jupiter. (Over 6 hours 43 minutes!)

Astronomers found a completely new type of plasma wave near Jupiter
Observations from NASA’s Juno spacecraft reveal that Jupiter’s strong magnetic field and the unique properties of its plasma can produce a truly novel kind of extraterrestrial wave near its poles

Although our plasma wave data really are waves in the audible frequency range, other non-wave data may be "sonified" where different aspects of the data are mapped to aspects of audio. #SpaceAudio #SpacePhysics plus.nasa.gov/video/listen...

NASA is famous for beautiful space images, but did you know you can listen to them? Go behind the scenes with the team that creates “sonifications,”
