Radio Waves: Listen to Outer Space & Planets

AI Thread Summary
Interest in listening to radio waves, particularly those from outer space and planets, is growing among enthusiasts. Several resources and links were shared, including websites that provide access to recordings of VLF and ELF radio signals, which are both natural and man-made. The Earth emits its own resonant frequencies, contributing to a diverse range of radio 'noise' that can be explored. Enthusiasts are encouraged to collect and log these transmissions, with various online platforms available for listening. The discussion highlights a community eager to share knowledge and resources for those new to this fascinating area of exploration.

Good day everyone.

I'm starting to become interested in listening to radio waves. I'm very new, just reading generally on what types of radios waves exist and what they are used for.

However, mostly my interest is in the area is of the sounds of these waves. I'm wondering if there are any web sites, links or files you could point me to so that I could listen to radio waves that have been created by listening to our outer space and planets, even ours?


I appreciate your time.
Thank you.

Wow, thank you so much!


I'm looking for more, but haven't found any yet.

If someone knows of additional links, please feel free to share them here.

thank you in advance!
Cheers.

There are plenty more out there I'm not sure where to find a complete listing however.
 
The following might be of some interest in re VLF and ELF radio signals... many of which are produced in nature with some very interesting and diverse results. For radio enthusiasts, ELF and VLF (both natural and man made) transmissions remain a slightly obscure but significant sub-category. The Earth has its own resonant frequency and emits lots of interesting radio 'noise', as well the cosmos at large. There are enthusiasts who regularly listen for, collect and log these transmissions.

That should keep you busy for a spell.

Have fun and enjoy,

Is a homemade radio telescope realistic? There seems to be a confluence of multiple technologies that makes the situation better than when I was a wee lad: software-defined radio (SDR), the easy availability of satellite dishes, surveillance drives, and fast CPUs. Let's take a step back - it is trivial to see the sun in radio. An old analog TV, a set of "rabbit ears" antenna, and you're good to go. Point the antenna at the sun (i.e. the ears are perpendicular to it) and there is...

Your posts, clips and photos may by all means include scientific information; that does not make it less beautiful to me (n.b. the posts must of course comply with the PF guidelines, i.e. regarding science, only mainstream science is allowed, fringe/pseudoscience is not allowed). n.b.

How does light maintain enough energy in the visible part of the spectrum for the naked eye to see in the night sky. Also, how did it start of in the visible frequency part of the spectrum. Was it, for example, photons being ejected at that frequency after high energy particle interaction. Or does the light become visible (spectrum) after hitting our atmosphere or space dust or something? EDIT: Actually I just thought. Maybe the EM starts off as very high energy (outside the visible...
