Photon, Electromagnetic Energy, VacuumAbstract
A photon is a particle of light defined as a discrete bundle (or quantum) of Electromagnetic energy. Photons are always in motion and, in a vacuum (a completely empty space), have a constant speed of light to all observers. Photons travel at the vacuum speed of light (more commonly just called the speed of light) of c = 299792458 m/s.
