This Graduate Student May Have Accidentally Recorded Sounds From Another World

It”s always weird when science fiction stops being fictional. A NASA student sent a balloon with infrared microphones above New Mexico and Arizona, capturing bizarre sounds that seem like something out of the Alien soundtrack.

The balloon captured these sounds 22 miles above the Earth”s surface. Normally these sounds can”t be heard because they are at a much lower frequency than human ears can detect. Luckily the sounds have been sped up Alvin and the Chipmunks style so we can hear their otherworldly horror.
