Question about waves

[Larniavc]

Is there an "existence" in outer space and everywhere else that we can't measure, but it actually exists and carries these waves?

The latest, most up to date theory is Ether Theory.

That's where you start to go off track. In fact we have no clue what light actually is, all we have are models that provide a decent explanation of how it behaves but that result in some very strange paradoxes (which are, in fact, observed). You can think of light as either waves or particle streams, but in reality it's most probably something we can't really grasp.

Light is well-explained mathematically (not quite so well philosophically). Light behaves like waves and it behaves like particles.

But then again, all particles behave like waves.

 

[Radagast]

I think the answer is that this is the wrong place to ask these questions.

Asking questions is fine. If you want to publicly announce your own theory, you'll have to back it up (especially if you're suggesting that all the professional scientists are wrong).

I'm glad you agree with me.

I'm glad you agree with me.

If that's what I'm doing, I'm happy to do so.

It really wasn't a theory and barely an hypothesis. I was just thinking out loud. It's how I process data. Ask my wife.
