Outposts are made out of spacewhale?

It's Space Madness I'm afraid, please report to the Doctor.
Various outposts have always made some strange noises, not saying yours aren't new though.

I always thought it's the mining or refinery type of outposts where you get to hear the sounds of heavy industry, especially some kind of siren.
I have always heard ambient sounds near outposts. I love it. It gives me the feeling that people are living there and are busy doing all kinds of stuff.
I have no idea whether it changed with 3.0.
Been flying between outpost much lately and noticed that one in particular was quite vocal. Apart from "sound in space" issue (mah immersiun) it's nice thing.
Outpost with thenoirate logos tend to have some creepy noises
With the amount of traffic entering them, it's to be expected.
I remember back in the days when a vulture was my only ship, I used to dock at outposts a lot, and thinking that the space whale noises were quite creepy, nowadays I take no notice of them.
I believe there are some mysteries hidden in the game audio since day one and we just didn't solve them yet. You don't create tons of awesome artificial sounds and galaxy background noise without putting something in there. The space whale sounds at outposts aren't new as far as I can tell.
I remember the first time I saw the wreckage you get at some outposts and checked it out thoroughly with my light on to work out what ship it was, the loneliness and eerie noises still get me everytime I visit one, which is pretty damn frequent if I'm honest.
Some of the hilltops and outlying areas at the Engineers bases have been provided with new (I didn't see them before anyway) tower structures. Some of these have really strange sounds emitting from them.
On a separate note. Did they tone down on the radio chatter audible close to the stations? I can barely hear it now, and it's no fault in my settings.

Doesn't every type of outpost have a different sound? So which ones do you hear moaning?
Also true of Planet Coaster - sound is something FD do really well.
Are the dance party outposts still in the game? (the ones that sound like you are outside a night-club)
Yeah hearing ships blow up in space is kinda Star Wars-ish I thought at first too. Until you shut off your sensors. Then everything outside the ship is deathly quiet. Supposedly why you can ‘hear in space’ in this game is because your sensors convert the EM waves made in space by objects to sound inside the ship. And when you shut off that service, the sound goes away. And if you blow your canopy, things get much much quieter. At that point you’re only getting sound from the contact of your body and helmet to the ship via induction.
Your SRV goes over bumps? Mine gets stuck on them.
