James Clerk Maxwell determined that light travels at a constant speed in a vacuum in his equations of electromagnetism in the 1860s. This was later experimentally confirmed by Albert A. Michelson and Edward W. Morley in the 1880s through their famous Michelson-Morley experiment.

Scientists like Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein made contributions to our understanding of light through their research and theories.
What is fast light or sound?
"Fast light" refers to light moving at its maximum speed in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. "Fast sound" refers to sound waves traveling at their maximum speed in a medium, which is approximately 343 meters per second in air at room temperature.
Why is light speed the ultimate?
This is because nothing else in the entire discovered universe moves as fast as the speed of light!
