Okay, so let's change the question to something parallel to it:

If you blow a dog whistle, and no dog is around to hear it, are you still making a sound?

Yes it makes a sound. Weather we actually hear it nor not, the sound is there. It is just at a frequency that most people can't hear.

The difference is though, our brain or anything that can hear a sound's brain is receiving those soundwaves. Weather or not they actually hear the sound, there is still sound.

The difference is with the original question, there is nothing there to receive the sound from the soundwaves and thus nothing to project the sound onto. If the sound isn't projected onto anything, there is no sound.

Here is another example.
Your in a field during the day. The sun is beating down lighting up the entire field.

You have with you a wooden board, and a flashlight. If you turn on the flashlight and point it at the wooden board, no matter how light it is outside, you will see the light reflect off of the board.

However, if you take the board away and flash the flashlight into the open air, you will not see the light. Because there is nothing there that can reflect the lesser light of the flashlight over the natural sunlight coming down. Therefore you don't see any light coming from the flash light.

Understand?

Nailed it.

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.
