Why can nuclear explosions on the sun not be heard on earth?
Sound cannot travel through the vacuum of space, so we cannot hear nuclear explosions on the sun from Earth. Sound requires a medium to travel through, like air, and space is empty.

Did a rocket ship ever blow up in space?
Yes, there have been instances of rocket failures resulting in explosions in space. One notable example is the explosion of the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket during a mission to the International Space Station in 2015.
