The sound of Saturn is most like something straight out of science fiction. Recorded by Cassini in April 2002 using its Radio and Plasma Wave Science instrument, these sounds represent the ringed planet's unusually intense radio emissions, linked to the auroras near its poles. The complex radio spectrum bears a close resemblance to the radio emissions from Earth's auroras.
