I did Google this a bit and understand that sounds needs a medium to travel.
So if we could hypothetically stand in the surface of the sun would we hear nothing?
If two asteroids collided would it be completely silent?

Sound is a mechanical wave. It needs something (air, water, etc) to travel through.
Stars do make noise, but we cannot hear it. If you could, the sun would be as loud as a train horn here on earth.
If two astroids collided, it would be silent to an observer, theoretically you could hear/feel it if you were on the astroid.
