We see light every day, but what is it actually made of? Light is quantized into tiny packets of energy called photons. Every photon, from radio waves to visible light to X-rays, is the same fundamental particle. What changes is the energy it carries, described by E = hf. But photons become even stranger. They have no rest mass and no electric charge, and in vacuum they travel at exactly 299,792,458 meters per second. Their behavior in the double-slit experiment reveals one of the most surprisin
