This report presents the work of a master thesis which aim was to investigate how sonification can be used in the space visualization software OpenSpace to further convey information about the Solar System. A sonification was implemented by using the software SuperCollider and was integrated into OpenSpace using Open Sound Control to send positional data to control the panning and sound level of the sonification. The graphical user interface of OpenSpace was also extended to make the sonification interactive. Evaluations were conducted both online and in the Dome theater to evaluate how well the sonification conveyed information. The outcome of the evaluations shows promising results, which might suggest that sonification has a future in conveying information of the Solar System.
