Yes, but it works both ways. Moviemakers have to account for normal
human expectations. Very few of us are accustomed to living in a vacuum.
We expect a vehicle to make sounds as it passes by. If Lucas made everything
completely silent in space, a few scientists and astronauts would say "Yes,
that's exactly how it should be!" but 99.9% of people would say "Huh? Where's the
sound?" and would feel the movie was too unrealistic.
