Why would it hum and am I taking this too seriously?

That's the best part - nobody would know!

But even so, if you were wise, you would hum as well.

Lay your pipe yourself.

Large homogenous objects make noise. Most theories i've heard think it's a result of vibration/internal stresses.

But is the joke that it will hum because that feature is money well spent, or because a large orb just does because of science, or because it just does and no one knows why?

Well because it comes out of the defence budget it would be a military installation and therefore the hum is classified

I think you're not taking it seriously enough. The number of benefits from this would be immense.

Think of all of the use we got out of the Omaha Cube! And it only whistles!

Why wouldn't it hum?
