The only waves that are known and proven to travel through empty space are electromagnetic waves. Theoretical gravitational waves also travel through empty space but have not yet been proven to exist. Both electromagnetic and gravitational waves move at the speed of light, thus it could be argued that a general term to describe all waves that can travel through empty space are waves that move at the speed of light.
They say the message is the medium. In this case you could call it the "Ether". Ether is a blanket term describing information that is transmitted by any source through any medium. In this case the emptiness of space.
What else can I help you with?
Which do not travel through empty space?
Sound waves do not travel through empty space because they require a medium, such as air, water, or a solid, to propagate. Similarly, mechanical waves like seismic waves also need a medium to travel and cannot propagate through empty space.
Why cant sound trave through empty space?
Sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the absence of a medium, such as in empty space, there are no particles for sound waves to propagate through, so sound cannot travel.
What is an example of a wave that can travel through empty spaces?
Light waves can travel through empty spaces. Any type of electromagnetic waves, from below ELF (<< 3 Hz) up through gamma rays (> 30 EHz) can travel through empty space. Visible light is just the one band from 430 THz to 790 THz. The only type of waves that can travel through empty space are electromagnetic waves.
Does heat travel through empty space by conduction?
No, heat does not travel through empty space by conduction because conduction requires particles to transfer heat energy from one molecule to another. In empty space, heat transfer occurs through radiation, where energy is transferred via electromagnetic waves.
Why can't sound travel through an empty space?
Sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid substance, to travel through. In an empty space, there are no particles for sound waves to travel through, so they cannot propagate.
Why cant you get energy from the sun through convection?
Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.Convection travels through matter. It won't travel through empty space.
What can travel either travel through matter or through empty spaces.?
volume
Which do not travel through empty space?

Can travel though empty space?
Yes, you can travel through empty space. The Sun, Earth, moon, satellites, space ships, atoms, and subatomic particles all travel through empty space. Greater than 99.999% of matter is empty space.
Why cant sound trave through empty space?
Sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the absence of a medium, such as in empty space, there are no particles for sound waves to propagate through, so sound cannot travel.
Can travel only through some type of matter .can travel either through matter or through empty space?
One example would be X-Rays. They are stopped by Lead, but travel through other matter and empty space.
What is an example of a wave that can travel through empty spaces?

Visible light is just the one band from 430 THz to 790 THz. The only type of waves that can travel through empty space are electromagnetic waves.
Which can travel through empty space out of insulator convection electomagnetic conduction or radiation?
Radiation can travel through empty space. The radiation in question is electromagnetic waves.
Does heat travel through empty space by conduction?
No, heat does not travel through empty space by conduction because conduction requires particles to transfer heat energy from one molecule to another. In empty space, heat transfer occurs through radiation, where energy is transferred via electromagnetic waves.

Does light travel through empty spaces?
yes it does..
What travels through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, can travel through empty space. These waves do not require a medium to propagate, allowing them to travel through the vacuum of space.
