In Space No One Can Hear You Scream... Or can they?

In the vacuum of space sound waves are unable to propagate, so sound doesn't carry by usual means.
But thanks to the modern sensor suites available today, pilots are able to hear the sounds of their surroundings as though flying through atmosphere.
Vibrations in the hulls of ships on sensors register in the sensor echos, providing accurate profiles for reproduction of engine noise, debris and weapon impacts, and even the signal displacement of passing energy weapons can be put to use.
These sound profiles are fed into the signal processor and broadcast to the pilot through the ship's sound system, giving the pilot an accurate soundscape in which to navigate their surroundings.

Thank an engineer today, for taking the silence out of space!

I have to ask: why my FAS sounds like an old rusty bucket of bolts every time i turn around? Did they sold me a second hand one?
 
Any vibration that impacts your hull can propagate through the interior atmosphere without enhancement.

Which is a pity, because it makes it harder to hear the space dolphins.
