Wouldn’t there also be the question of what is sound? Aren’t there plenty of phenomena that allow us to “hear” something through space. Is it something like the medium is the message?

There are two components to a sound - the sound waves traveling through the air, and a mechanism to capture those waves, and translate it into sound. BOTH components are required for there to be a “Sound.”

In space, there is no air for the sound waves to travel. In addition, there would have to be an ear, or a microphone, or some other mechanism to capture the waves. Without either of them, there can be no sound.

You listed three things though
  • The Waves, 2) The Receiver.
