Since I'm a space nerd and a classical music lover let's have a post comparing Holst's Jupiter and Saturn to the actual radio waves emitted by Jupiter and Saturn.

Holst's The Planets Jupiter, Bringer of Jollity

"BBC Proms 2009 - Holst - Jupiter" (Watch on YouTube)

Actual radio waves emitted by the planet Jupiter

"Jupiter (radio waves)" (Watch on YouTube)

Holst's The Planets Saturn, the Bringer of Old Age

"Holst-Planets Suite-Saturn-Proms 2009" (Watch on YouTube)

Actual radio waves emitted by the planet Saturn

"The Eerie Sounds Of Saturn" (Watch on YouTube)

CREEPY!

Oh! That is so cool! I just played it to my mum (also a classical music lover and closet nerd apparently) and she's amazed too.

It's such a crazy concept to think that despite the silence of space, things are shockingly loud (and very weird sounding at that).
