NEW YORK (AP) — Scientists have detected cosmic waves that sound like birds chirping in an unexpected place. These bursts of plasma, called chorus waves, ripple at the same frequency as human hearing. When converted to audio signals, their sharp notes mimic high-pitched bird calls. Researchers have captured such sounds in space before, but now they have sensed the chirping waves from much farther away: over 62,000 miles (100,000 kilometers) from…

In the 1960s, scientists at the Halley base in Antarctica began to hear mysterious waves originating on the Earth's equator. Their radio receivers were recording intense bursts of electrons shaking the magnetosphere, the layer created by the Earth's magnetic field that protects life from space radiation.When those signals became sound, a kind of whistle was heard that could be confused with the trine of some birds at dawn.

En la década de 1960, los científicos de la base Halley, en la Antártida, comenzaron a escuchar unas ondas misteriosas que se originaban sobre el ecuador de la Tierra. Sus receptores de radio estaban registrando unas intensas ráfagas de electrones que sacuden la magnetosfera, la capa creada por el campo magnético terrestre que protege la vida de la radiación espacial. Cuando esas señales se convertían en sonido, se escuchaba una especie de silbi…

Chorus waves are some of the strongest electromagnetic emissions naturally occurring in space and can cause radiation that is hazardous to humans and satellites1–3. Although chorus waves have attracted extreme interest and been intensively studied for decades4–7, their generation and evolution remain highly debated7. Here, in contrast to the conventional expectation that chorus waves are governed by planetary magnetic dipolar fields5,7, we repor…
