all i have under my belt is a high school physics class, so please bear with me. i have a pretty good understanding of light and waves, but this question still gets me. and nowhere can i find a decent answer, or rather, and answer i can comprehend. if EM waves don't require a medium, then what exactly are the electric and magnetic fields if they arent a disturbance of something besides the initial medium. are they a disturbance of spacetime? any help is Immensely appreciated.
