I'm Listening to the Stars with My Eyes Closed: A University is Looking for Volunteers to Listen to the Voices of the Stars

A university in Belgium is looking for volunteer participants to listen to the stars to detect and classify them. It is estimated that how powerful the human ear is in data analysis can be determined by listening to the stars.

Just as people can distinguish a musical instrument from the sounds they make; Leuven University astronomers in Belgium will take part in the project for a study that will investigate whether the human ear can distinguish sounds made by stars. announces that he is looking for volunteers. Volunteers accepted to the project; will ‘listen’ to the stars in order to detect and classify the stars . “AstroSounds” on the website created for the project It has been noted that the science of astronomy is more than visual observation, stars can make sounds like musical instruments with vibrations. Researcher astronomer Katrien Kolenberg from the University of Leuven, on the other hand, stated that some stars vibrate and ring like giant bells, in sizes that the human ear cannot hear.

Stars have different features that make them make different sounds

Yıldız Kolenberg, these vibrations and ringing cause changes in the light coming from the stars ; He stated that these changes can be transformed into audible sounds. Kolenberg noted that these tones can also be used to detect and classify stars. On how to listen to the stars and what it will do, Kolenberg said, “Stars like the sun are huge balls of gas. They have different properties that make different sounds.” He added that by listening to a large number of people, it is possible to determine how strong the human ear is in data analysis . The AstroSounds project, jointly led by Kolenberg and visually impaired researcher Wanda Diaz-Merced; Diaz-Merced’s doctoral study on hearing-based analysis of star data also forms the core of the project.
