Photon
A photon is an elementary particle. It is the quantum of the electromagnetic field, including electromagnetic radiation such as light and radio waves and the force carrier for the electromagnetic force. Photons have no mass, and therefore move at the speed of light in vacuum, 299792458 m/s (or about 186,282 mi/s).
