    Why does light have a speed at all?

    Thanks. This is clear to me now. I did not realize it before I posted my initial question. Is there anything else which doesn't have a perspective? I don't think I was escaping logic, I did after all highlight why the perspective cannot exist. Hypothetical scenarios are used all the time to...

    Why does light have a speed at all?

    I wasn't theorizing and was trying to reference you... and yet relativity has no beef with the fact that my hypothetical photon exists. I think my hypothetical was simply an attempt to ask what the affine parameter you refer to is a parameter of if it is not a time geodesic nor a space...

    Why does light have a speed at all?

    Thanks. I understand this from the responses; which I express with less than 100% accuracy in laymans terms, but I believe this is the jist: Light exists validly from the relativistic perspective of others but has no valid relativistic perspective itself within a spacetime frame of reference...

    Why does light have a speed at all?

    What I mean is that quite often the response is that light has no frame of reference or that nothing of mass can achieve the speed of light so there is nothing to answer. Given that light travels at lightspeed such a condition does exist for -something- in the Universe; allbeit a massless...

    Why does light have a speed at all?

    I appreciate that this may be the 100th time this is asked but I am yet to see an answer which addresses the question head on. Given that reaching light speed creates both a length and time singularity; both length and time amount to zero for the propagating wave/photon. Why does that photon...
