Microwave photons from the cosmic microwave background radiation have been traveling through space for approximately 13.8 billion years, since the early universe.
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation that consists of photons. Photons are the smallest unit of light and carry energy. When radio waves are transmitted, they are made up of photons traveling through space, carrying information and energy.
Radiant energy travels through space in the form of electromagnetic waves, specifically as photons. These photons have no mass and move at the speed of light.
The photons are affected because the gravitational field affects space-time. Therefore, the photons are responding to the shape of space-time rather than the gravity itself. The photons in question i suppose are coming from stars and that means they are traveling through space and space is a clear medium. When light travels through a medium it's frequency is lowered and its direction changes. If you were referring to the 1919 eclipse, the stars behind the sun that became visible was due to the suns coronal medium that their light passed through. It was an optical illusion. gravity guru.
When sunlight photons pass through a glass pane, most of the photons are transmitted through the glass, while some are reflected and scattered. The glass absorbs very little of the sunlight energy, allowing most of it to pass through into the enclosed space.
Photons are affected by gravity because they have energy and momentum, which can be influenced by gravitational fields. Gravity can cause photons to change direction or lose energy as they travel through space. This effect is known as gravitational lensing.

No; light is photons.

Photons do not travel through time. This is due to the fact that the faster you travel through space, the slower you travel through time. In other words, if an object is standing still, it is traveling at the speed of light through time, and since a photon travels at the speed of light through space, it is not traveling through time. -- Asker here, I hope no one minds me editing in to expand on the question/answer given. Surely the answer must be more complex. If a photon does not travel through time, then that could potentially violate/invalidate causality.

Certainly photons exist in space. Electromagnetic energy travels most freely in space. The light you see from the sun and the stars all consists of photons.
Trajectory
UV rays are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes light, radio, x-ray, infrared, and other "waves". All of these travel through space as photons. Photons behave both as particles and as waves. Their particle nature lets them travel through space, where there is nothing to conduct them, as a wave would normally need.
Satellite- A probe implies probing or traveling through space and not fixed.
