Light is a type of electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic waves are composed of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of the wave's travel. These waves do not require a medium to travel through and can propagate through a vacuum, such as space. The electromagnetic spectrum encompasses a wide range of frequencies and wavelengths, and light is just one part of this spectrum.

Electromagnetic waves are made of oscillating magnetic and electric fields and, like all waves, they carry energy. There are many types of electromagnetic waves. From lowest energy to highest energy (red to blue) there are radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, x-rays and gamma rays.
