(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
NO! Seismic waves can't travel through space. They are mechanical waves. Mechanical waves require going through mediums and there isn't a medium in space.
seismic wave travels faster through solid rock and slower through water, but i dont know why!
Seismic, or earthquake waves travel through the earth. They may travel through our crust, which is rocky, or through the more fluid parts, like the mantle, but the medium is the earth.
Primary seismic waves are longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves can travel through solids, liquids and gasses (although seismic waves are of to low a frequency to normally be heard). Secondary seismic waves are transverse waves and only travel through solids.
A body wave is a seismic wave that travels through Earths interior.

Seismic waves
Seismic waves travel through the Earth's interior, primarily through solid rock. They can also travel through other mediums such as magma and other materials found in the Earth's crust and mantle. The speed and direction of seismic waves change as they encounter different materials with varying densities and properties.

A Body Wave.
Since an earthquake or seismic wave is a pressure or force wave (like sound waves), it requires a material in which to propagate. So, no earthquake waves can travel through a vacuum.
