Does light travel?

if the aether medium is a real physical medium like Tesla, Stubblefield and Heaviside all said existed how can light work? Is light really traveling or is it being absorbed and re-transmitted by the aether substructure?

light is like a transverse water wave. Where is it's boundary layer where it exists. Water waves exist on the surface of the ocean. Where's the surface of space for light?

Perhaps it doesn't travel at all and the right angle relationship of it's E and B fields are really stationary?
is this the origin of the wave-particle duality of photons?

thoughts?

Does sound alter in the dark without light?

If the Aether were to re-transmit Light, then the Aether would have to be Light also, because the speed of light is 186,000 miles per second, and therefore nothing we know of could ever reach the speed of light..:cool:..

The E field you mentioned is actually the electrical field vector of the Radio Wave, and the B field is the magnetic field vector of the Radio Wave, which is at a right angle from the electrical field, and therefore both the E and B fields combine to form a Radio Wave (At Light Frequency, by way of the electrons absorbing photons)..:cool:..

Personally i believe that sound could change in the dark due to the absence of certain light waves which would cause a very tiny decrease or increase in the surrounding air-pressure, thus resulting in a change to the sound frequencies..(y)..

Sunlight takes about eight minutes to reach the earth. It is been pretty well documented when you start talking about light years that light speed is not a constant thing as so many thoughts decades ago. It has a veritable speed for what reason, I’m not sure why it is not constant throughout the universe.

Light photons do not travel only darkness lights up!
So it's not about traveling, but about disappearing!

Albert Einstein lived too soon to understand this.

Physical bodies need light for their personal decay.
Paranormal energies, however, require the existence of as few light photons as possible.
Light is just momentary, such as the Sun rays, various lights, everything is of short duration character. The darkness is eternal.
So, this means that we can not talk about a journey of light, but we are talking about the disappearance of light or darkness.

Would you kindly clarify what you meant when you said, Light Photons do not travel only darkness lights up...So its not about travelling, but about disappearing :unsure:..

Light is truly amazing... some interesting facts on light travel.

The speed of light in a vacuum is 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second), and in theory nothing can travel faster than light. In miles per hour, light speed is, well, a lot: about 670,616,629 mph. If you could travel at the speed of light, you could go around the Earth 7.5 times in one second.

Dawg, Prof Opmmur and me are both licensed Radio Hams and we use the speed of light with radio frequencies to calculate in meters, what the most efficient length an aerial should be (y):cool:...Should anyone be interested in a very simple calculation, contact privately, either the Prof or Me..:)...If any member prefers the calculation to be in Feet and Inches, we can show you that also :D..

Because gravity is a stronger force than light. If gravity can alter the path of light it can alter the speed of light.
