NASA Transforms Stellar Life Cycles into Music with Sonification Project

NASA is converting astronomical data, including the life cycles of stars, into orchestral music through its innovative 'Universe of Sound' sonification project. This initiative uses data from telescopes like Chandra, Webb, and Hubble to create compositions, enhancing public engagement and accessibility for visually impaired individuals. The project involves collaborations with composers to bring cosmic wonders to life through sound.
