Sound cannot travel through the vacuum of space, as it requires a medium (like air or water) to propagate. Therefore, sound from the Sun does not reach Earth at all. Instead, energy from the Sun travels through space in the form of electromagnetic radiation, primarily as light, which takes about 8 minutes and 20 seconds to reach Earth.
