No he didnt. He brought objects into it.
The light is still there, our eyes just cant see it.
Heres a question- Smart one-
You have night heat vision goggles on, during the day, you light your light into the sky-
An powerful noe, not a dinky flash light. Other then the yellow/orange you see around you, you will see a dark red beam of light.
BUT ZOMGZ HACKS THE LIGHTS NOT THERE
You people need to get off this arguement,
Why do you people think that jsut because we dont see it/hear it it doesnt happen?
Thats the most illogical excuse I've EVER heard.
Some of you, are making yourselves look stupid.

Lol dude, what do you think the point of my example was? That if we can't see it, it isn't there?
No, the point of my example is that even though we can't see it, it IS there. Way to restate my example through a much more confusing one... lol.
But anyway, lets bring about a close to this argument.
The answer is not "Yes" it isn't "No" the answer is simply unknown.
No matter how you define sound. Either as receiving the sensation of a sound wave and actually hearing something. Or sound being the actual sound wave itself.
The answer is unknown because since no one is there, unlike everywhere else, there is no way to prove that a sound wave even was created!
Think about it. When sound waves where discovered, and from then on observed, there was always at least one living thing that can perceive sound present. So whose to say that if there isn't any one/thing present at the time of the incident that is supposed to send out a sound wave, that a sound wave would even happen. There is no way to experiment and test the theory, and there is no way to prove one occurred or one didn't occur.
You can use all the logic you want, but when it comes down to it, you just cannot prove that a sound wave even was created. Thus the answer to the question is simply "Unknown"
