Electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum, Because it has an electric and a magnetic component in it.
Explanation:
The vibration that is created in an electric charge is the cause for the creation of an electromagnetic wave. The electromagnetic waves contains a magnetic and an electric component in it because of this vibration. The transportation of the energy at 3.00 x 108 m/s speed in an empty space.
The electric and magnetic components that are present in an electromagnetic wave is called fields. There is a vibration at an angle of 90 degree by these fields with respect to the wave motion. The light speed remains unchanged.
