    Oh, I forgot..most of yous don't know what the definition of a "vacuum" is...
    so for your convenience I'll post it here...(maybes yous forgots)


    vac·u·um
    /'vak?yo?om/
    noun

    a space entirely devoid of matter.
    synonyms: empty space, emptiness, void, nothingness, vacuity, vacancy, voidness, nihility

    What is the speed of light, anyway?

    What is measured by fixed apparatus in a given medium, a constant value, plus the velocity of the light emitter towards the experiencing object in a given frame of reference.
    or
    c(V)=c+V

    It's exactly 299,792,458 metres per second.

    Sylvia.

    We pick some star approximately 20 light years from earth. We
    then predict its location for some time in the future based on
    hitting that star based the speed of light you have defined for
    us. If we dispatch a three second beam of light at the future
    location of that star will our beam of light actually hit it?

    This question is based on our knowledge of the path traveled by
    our light beam appears to be a straight line while in reality
    our beam of light will travel a somewhat longer geodesic path
    that we cannot define.

    Hint: there's more than one problem involved.

    If the speed of light changes as from the past
    their is a different E=mc Squared.
    Gamma would also contain a changing light
    speed. Both equations would go dynamic
    by a changing light speed.
