Elaine Webster's article explores the modern revival of cosmic harmony, also known as the Music of the Spheres, through art and science.

It highlights how artists and scientists translate cosmic phenomena into sound and visual art using technologies like sonification.

Sonification is a process of mapping data to sound parameters, allowing us to "hear" the universe.

Examples include NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory's conversion of X-ray emissions into sound and the sonification of gravitational waves detected by LIGO.

This approach aids scientists in identifying patterns in data and making space science accessible to the public.

Ultimately, sonification enhances our understanding of the cosmos by exploring data in a new auditory way.
