TL;DR Summary

NASA has released three new sonifications of images from the Chandra X-ray Observatory and other telescopes, coinciding with the launch of a documentary called "Listen to the Universe" on the NASA+ streaming platform. Sonification translates scientific data into sounds, making space imagery accessible to the blind and visually-impaired community. The sonifications feature objects like a supernova remnant, a spiral galaxy, and the Jellyfish Nebula, and are part of a project that aims to reach wider audiences through traditional and social media. The documentary explores the creation of these sonifications and profiles the team behind the project.
