The speed of light in vacuum is exactly 299,792,458 m/s (metres per second)
In 1983 the SI (Systeme International) defined a metre as:
The metre is the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a second.
When people refer to the speed of light, they refer to the definition above - the speed of light in a vacuum.
The speed of light is normally rounded to 300 000 kilometers per second or 186 000 miles per second.
But what is the speed of dark?
