Sound is caused by vibrations in a medium. Common mediums we experience sound in is air and water. You can hear how the difference in sound mediums affect how you perceive the sound.
Space has no medium for sound to travel it is a near perfect vacuum. There would be nothing to vibrate to produce sound.
True. A sufficiently low-pitch sound will travel just fine. In neutral gas, it only breaks down as the wavelength reaches the mean free path of the particles.
On top of that, space is usually filled with ionised gas, and sound could travel electromagnetically. Actually calculating what that looks like in near-Earth space is beyond me.
