Infrared light
Light can travel over further distances. Fibre optics are tiny tubes which transmit light signals over long distances, and very quickly. Hope this helped!
Light reflects off objects and enters our eyes, where it is converted into electrical signals that are sent to the brain. The brain then processes these signals, allowing us to perceive and interpret the visual information, which is how we are able to see things.
They first used parallax which makes sense but now they use radar signals. Radar signals travel at the speed of light and they send a powerful one out to rebound off of a planet and time how long it takes to return.
Optical fibers transmit signals over long distances by a process called total internal reflection. In this process, optical fibers bend light by bouncing pulses of light along their inner walls, which enables the pulses of light to travel quickly over long distances.

The signals is the duration, intensity of light or the temperature
We use light years for the sake of easy readability. In the universe, most of the distances are in trillions of miles or so. You cant go writing that an object is 1400000000000000... miles from earth! To make it clear and concise, light year is the unit we use.
A hologram is basically a 3D image formed by light beams. The long, thin, flexible strands of glass or plastic that is used to carry light signals and telecommunication data for long distances is known as Fibre Optics.
Laser Diode. photo diode
Fiber optic cables carry light, not radio frequency energy. Somewhat like comparing apples to nuts.
We can measure distances in space in light years...1 light year is equal to the distance light travels in 1 year.They are very accurate...............
Usually such distances are measured either in light-years, or in parsecs.
