Does the sun make a sound?

When I imagine being close to the sun I imagine it making a very loud roaring noise, like that of a large fire. Also, if it does make a sound, would you be able to hear it in the near-perfect vacuum of space?

Depends on how you define "sound." In the strictest definition, sound is a pressure wave through some kind of medium, and there's nothing between the sun and anything else that can act as an effective medium.

But *within* the sun there are pressure waves that you could imagine are something like a sound. You could never hear them, obviously, because your ears wouldn't survive that environment for even the tiniest fraction of a second. But if you like, you can imagine the sun ringing like a bell that's continuously being struck.

That's mostly just poetry, though. In practical terms, no, the sun does not make a sound, and no you could not hear it under any circumstances.
