Sign in to track this film in your collection or want list.
Uses visual examples, simplified laboratory experiments, and animation to explain light as a form of energy, how the speed of light is measured, its constant speed, and the photon and wave theories of movement. Shows classical experiments to measure the speed of light by using light from distant planets, the toothed wheel, and rotating mirrors. Explores A. A. Michaelson's 1896 discovery that light moves at a constant speed.
