What is Speed of Light?
The speed of light is a fundamental physical constant representing how fast light and electromagnetic waves propagate in a vacuum.
Short history of Speed of Light
Since 1983, the meter itself has been defined based on the speed of light, making its value exact by definition rather than measured.
