Yes, It is true that nobody can hear you scream in space.

But now the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has made available "Moonbell" - a site that you can use to hear the sound of the Moon.

Thank's to JAXA's Kaguya lunar orbiter -- injected into lunar orbit back in October of last year -- it is measuring the Moon's surface by laser altimeter. And listen to this...you can "hear" lunar surface ups and downs on the Moonbell site.

Also, you can customize the instruments and tones by clicking "preference" in the left bottom of the Moonbell window.

Give it a listen, but you'll need the latest Java plug-in installed on your browser.
