Its function is to transmit sound from the air to the ossicles inside the middle ear. The malleus bone bridges the gap between the eardrum and the other ossicles. The are two general regions of the tympanic membrane the pars flaccida upper region, see picture on right and the pars densa. The pars flaccida consists of two layers, is relatively fragile, and is associated with eustachian tube dysfunction and cholesteatoma cholesteatomas . The larger pars densa region consists of three layers ectoderm, entoderm, and mesoderm , is comparatively robust, and is the region most commonly associated with perforations. Rupture or perforation of the eardrum can lead to conductive hearing loss . Collapse or tympanic membrane retraction retraction of the ear drum can also cause conductive hearing loss or even cholesteatoma . Intentional rupture The Bajau people of the Pacific intentionally rupture their eardrums at an early age in order to facilitate diving and hunting at sea.

Orphan date February 2009 A plasma receiver is an instrument capable of detecting the vibrations in outer space plasma physics plasma . It may have been Donald Gurnett , University of Iowa Professor of Physics , who invented the Plasma receiver. Gurnett has been intimately involved in the key space probes sent since 1962 Ijun III, Voyager program Voyager I and II, Galileo spacecraft Galileo and Cassini Huygens amongst others . Vibrations in the audible frequency range are perceived by humans when air vibrates against their eardrum . Air, or some other vibrating medium such as water, is indispensable in the perception of sound by the human ear. Without it acting as a transmitter, the sound produced by the source will not be perceived by a human. There is no air in outer space, nor there is any other type of medium capable of transmitting any vibration from a source to a human ear. However, there are sources in outer space that do vibrate at frequencies that would be audible by a human, if only there were some sort of transmitting media to carry those vibrations from the source to a human eardrum. One such source, capable of vibrating at audible frequencies 45 to 20,000 vibrations per second is plasma. Plasma is a collection of charged particles, such as free electrons or ionized gas atoms. Examples of plasma are solar flares , solar wind , neon sign s and fluorescent lamps . Plasma interacts with electrical and magnetic fields in ways that can result in vibrations in many frequencies, including the audible range. It appears that Gurnett designed the first plasma receiver, an instrument capable of detecting the vibrations in outer space plasma. These interplanetary plasma vibrations can be transformed into sound waves or air vibrations audible to a human ear. NASA provided recordings of these interplanetary and outer space plasma vibrations to composer Terry Riley and Kronos quartet founder David Harrington musician David Harrington , which inspired the composition of ... more details
