The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has reshared the sound of a black hole, which is quite spooky and haunting. The audio clip represents actual sound waves, which are coming out from a supermassive black hole located around 250 million light-years away.&nbsp;

The American space agency previously reported that the black hole at the centre of the Perseus galaxy cluster has been associated with sound since 2003.&nbsp;

The sound waves rippling out of the galaxy have been transposed up to 57 and 58 octaves in order to make them audible to human hearing.&nbsp;

NASA's account, which is dedicated to exoplanets, tweeted: "The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel."&nbsp;

It added, "A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!"&nbsp;

The sound was actually released this year in May as it was coming from Nasa's Chandra X-ray Observatory. Back then, NASA had explained: Astronomers discovered that pressure waves sent out by the black hole caused ripples in the cluster's hot gas that could be translated into a note — one that humans cannot hear some 57 octaves below middle C."&nbsp;&nbsp;

This is not the first time, NASA has also done a sonification of the black hole located around 54 million light years away at the centre of Galaxy Messier 87, or M87. The agency has even produced similar sonification of a distant galaxy.&nbsp;

Not so long ago, the agency even recorded the extraterrestrial sounds of Mars.&nbsp;
