Out of topic, do you know that sound can reach to New York from Tokyo in about 9 hours? (providing there's no barrier and we can ignore doppler effect).

Distance between New York to Tokyo is about 6760 miles.
Speed of sound via air is about 344 m/s.
6760 miles (10,879 km) / 344 m/s = about 32000 seconds (about 9 hours).
