CAMBRIDGE -- Last month, scientists using a space telescope announced a key

the deepest musical note ever sounded in the universe -- B flat, 57 octaves 
below middle C -- emitted by a black hole.

I was just practicing this note yesterday, and was able to sustain it for 
.000000000000000000000002 microseconds.
