Answer:

This is because there is no air in space – it is a vacuum. Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum. ... Even the emptiest parts of space contain at least a few hundred atoms or molecules per cubic metre. Space is also filled with many forms of radiation that are dangerous to astronauts.
