Everything loses energy as it travels -- the planet relies upon the
work of gravity; the airplane consumes fuel. How come light can travel
without losing energy?
Granted the electric and magnetic components of light oscillate at
right angles to enable it to travel in a very efficient way, but the
oscillation should consume energy like everything else.
Where does this energy come from?
