Hi,
I am not a student of physics, asking the question as it came to mind as I read certain articles:
1. When EM Waves is emitted by a source say star it spreads in vacuum. How does the waves Stretch? What fills in the gaps as the sphere of spread grows? If light emission is continuous does the density of light in the sphere has any relation to the distance from source? Basically I doubt how can the light spread continuously without breaking up..or something like that.
2. If all the light from different stars are accounted for..do different light spheres interact and say cancel or reinforce each other?
Advance thanks for the replies,
Harish
