How fast does nuclear radiation travel?

If it is borne by wind blown dust and small particles, then as fast as the wind, potentially. If it is direct radiation like gamma rays, then this travels at the speed of light.


Would light travel faster through space or wind?

It would travel faster through space since there are no particles to get in its way. The wind is an opposing force so it is harder to move faster. The difference between the two would be negligble but specifically, light moves faster through space.

If the wind blows at the speed of light can light travel through it?

Since you have already postulated the fantasy that the wind is blowing at the speed of light, you might just as well go ahead and decide whether or not you want light to be able to travel through it, then wave the same wand and make it so. There's no evidence that motion of a material medium has any effect on the ability or inability of light to pass through it, so a first pass at this sorcery produces the speculation that the light would have no problem.


How fast does a raindrop travel?

Depending on the size of the raindrop and the wind speed, updrafts, downdrafts a raindrop can fall at the speed of light. The previous answer was obviously written by an idiot. A raindrop will fall at usually 3 to 8 metres/second. A raindrop will never ever be able to travel at the speed of light.
