Hello everyone and Paul Francis,
I am trying to find a link between
the planetary/star data and the sound
is it based on the atom frequencies
(Committee on Radio Astronomy Frequencies)
or something I have not found yet
I do have a very basic understand in the area
(been using en.wikipedia.org)
PS: Paul Francis your web site is the best I have found on this topic

"I am trying to find a link between the planetary/star data and sound"
There isn't any. Unless you do something like take reception from a
radio telescope, convert variations in signal strength or frequency to
audio, and listen to it. But that was never "sound" before it was
radio radiation, unlike music heard on your favorite station on the
radio. Like "false color" photos of some astronomical object. A
conversion done so our human senses can hear/see it and the brain can
work with it.
One of the big boys of astronomy a few hundred years ago (Kepler,
Tycho, Newton, ?) was kicking around the idea that maybe the Sun's
planets produced sound (like a ringling bell) as they traveled their
orbits. Probably just an idea one of these guys had but he couldn't
make it pan out. A historian must have found it in a notebook. Most
scientists have ideas that don't pan out after kicking it around for a
while. But some ideas do work out on paper and sometimes after that
are found to be good science and fit observations of the real world.

Re-read what Bob wrote. The paper discusses converting light to sound
to illustrate certain principles, not because there is any fundamental
relation between the light and sound.
