And the sound, in space, no one can hear you scream. I like the Firefly series, they do a good job of this, pity it only ran for one season.

" In space, no one can hear you scream" was actually the tag line for Alien, the 1979 movie. Regardless it's true lol

It sure was - in the end when the Nostromo detonates there’s no sound just blinding light until the shock wave hits the escape pod. It’s the shock wave rippling through the escape pod that makes the noise.

I will note, though, that the penultimate battle of the sequel movie Serenity incorporated sound effects, but it was visually handwaved because it took place in a space cloud.

You can though, if you sat behind a rocket firing its engines and didn't get vaporized, you'd hear the waves in the particles it spat towards you
