Well exactly and I hope there aren't people who are reading this thinking that Cassini was recording voices in space.. Because it wasn't.. At least not in the form of audible speech.. I would think that most people would understand that.. But you never know
There are many instances where recorded space noise sounds odd because of all the different frequencies and tones. So at least from what I've heard it isn't uncommon to hear voices or music in space noise.. That's the entire reason they made the CD's I was talking about (because it sounds so much like music and people singing when it really isn't).
Amplified ELF recordings of the auroras are another form of what people commonly refer to as music when it just sounds that way.. It's all how the data is processed anyway. So at least in a way it's like taking a photo, editing it, and then claiming there is something unexplained in it.. It may not be exactly like that but the way the data is processed is what eventually determines what the data sounds like (which could actually be anything just depending on how they process the data).
That's the only reason they are even audible. although I have heard that some people hearing audible noises during the aurora could be due to rocks in the earth somehow amplifying and transmitting that energy. Which is honestly funny becuase people believe that some paranormal activity is caused by the same thing. My stepfather even claims to have "heard" the aurora once.. So I know it's possible.. Living in Alaska is cool
! Not to change the subject but I've also heard of what scientists call black aurora where instead of actually creating photons/light they actually are completely black and block out the stars. I think this was just recently discovered a couple years ago by the trio of satellites the ESA has up in orbit to study the auroras.
