The speed of dark?
mightybradass Started conversation Nov 12, 2005
Greetings travelers...Everyone seems to know the speed of light (one hundred eighty-six thousand and some change/ miles per second), but can anyone guess-timate the speed of dark? Is the speed of dark slower 'cuz light passes through it, or does it consume it? Or is the speed of dark faster, and darkness actually consumes the light? Makes you wonder if we should be telling our kids, "Turn on the dark switch and go to sleep!" as we tuck them in at night.??????????????????????

"Imagine a high frequency pulsed laser, imagine you can see the pulses of light travel into the distance.
Between the pulses of light the lasers does send nothing, also known as dark. It appears to have the same speed as the light. "
