It means the speed at which light moves. While it may seem that light advances instantaneously, in fact it does not - it moves at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second. That's the speed in a vacuum; in other substances, it moves slower. For example, in glass or water it moves at about 2/3 of the speed it has in a vacuum.
