those two could easily be used in some kind of sci-fi action/horror game and would the perfect terrifying ambient sounds, especially knowing they are semi-natural.
i agree with djheater, having access to the truly natural, audible sounds on the planets surface would be awesome, but sadly I doubt there is anything other than wind. Reason I say that, are the sounds that are audible to humans are either from man-made machines or from other lifeforms. But it'd definitely be a neat experiment.
However, I think they are basically saying no sounds were in audible range because it had a built-in regular microphone, that captured the sound of rushing wind as the spacecraft plummeted to the ground. I think it landed safely too, and would suggest how they got the sounds of the planet itself (unless it crashed and they recorded the sounds from space before it crashed).
