On the basis of a calculation of the planetary constellations in our solar system, Hans Cousto managed to determine the exact frequencies of the individual planets and asteroids in relation to the sun. Decisive was on the one hand the duration, which the object needs for the unique orbit, the sun lying in the center, as well as the duration of the rotation on the own axis. By multiple octavation of these recorded frequency ranges, a sound audible to the human ear can be derived and converted into the form of various instruments.
