I wonder how

Beyond the blue

sound travels in blackness.

Does thunder live there too?

The speed of sound in a vacuum is zero meters per second, as sound cannot travel in a vacuum. Sound is a wave, which means it spreads through the vibration of particles in a medium, such as water or air. Since a vacuum is empty space, there is no medium for the sound to travel through. Hopefully this helps Lauren.

One can dream of the quiet. But alas even if there, our tinnitus would follow. Our sound shadow.
