Terrifying! When solar storm slammed into Earth and made magnetic field explode; LISTEN

Do you want to know how Earth's magnetic field sounds after a solar storm strike? It is terrifying! It happened just a couple of days ago and you can listen to the scary sound today. The European Space Agency (ESA) has released an audio track of converted data which provides a disturbing sonic representation of the Earth's magnetic field. It can be known that the Earth's magnetic field is not something we can actually see in itself, or ever hear. However, scientists at the Technical University of Denmark have taken magnetic signals measured by ESA's Swarm satellite mission and converted them into sound after the solar storm strike – and the sound that it made is quite scary.

It can be known that the audio clip represents the magnetic field generated by Earth's core and its interaction with a solar storm. Speaking about the sound, musician and project supporter Klaus Nielsen, from the Technical University of Denmark, said “We gained access to a very interesting sound system consisting of over 30 loudspeakers dug into the ground at the Solbjerg Square in Copenhagen. We have set it up so that each speaker represents a different location on Earth and demonstrates how our magnetic field has fluctuated over the last 100000 years."

“Throughout this week, visitors will be able to hear the amazing rumble of our magnetic field – so if you are in Copenhagen come along and check out this unique opportunity. The rumbling of Earth's magnetic field is accompanied by a representation of a geomagnetic storm that resulted from a solar flare on 3 November 2011, and indeed it sounds pretty scary,” he said.

According to a report by ESA, Earth's magnetic field is a complex and dynamic bubble that keeps living organisms safe from cosmic radiation
