This is The Strange Sounds of Ancient Stars, In space, no one can hear you scream because of the vacuum, and sounds like the ones usual you hear on Earth - in space we can't walk through anything. However, that does not mean there are no other sounds. There is even a tool that is dedicated to researching the hidden sounds of the universe. and this tool called asteroseismology.
Asteroseismology also known as stellar seismology, is the science that studies the internal structure of pulsating stars by the interpretation of their frequency spectra. Different oscillation modes penetrate to different depths inside the star. These oscillations provide information about the otherwise unobservable interiors of stars in a manner similar to how seismologists study the interior of Earth and other solid planets through the use of earthquake oscillations.
Asteroseismology provides the tool to find the internal structure of stars. The pulsation frequencies give the information about the density profile of the region where the waves originate and travel. The spectrum gives the information about its chemical constituents. Both can be used to give information about the internal structure. Asteroseismology effectively turns tiny variations in the star's light into sounds.

Listen to the voice number 3, and it was very scary but also soothing

Each of the above recordings comes from a star in one of the oldest sections of the Milky Way galaxy. Just think, each of those stars has been "singing" like that for billions of years.
