"Turbulence creates sound waves on the sun's surface, similar to the wave patterns generated on a struck bell. I had a big smile on my face after learning that all of the stars in our universe play a tone. The initial sound generated by the primordial plasma became stars, which in turn create sounds. I discovered that a few astronomers started to use helio-seismology as a means to study the sound waves on stars to learn about the inner structures of the star. My vision of a musical universe was more than an analogy; I realized it was becoming literal"
