What is the speed of darkness?

Well, since, as stated before, darkness is the absence of light, it travels at the exact speed of light in a given medium. For example, if you turn a light on in a darkened room, it gets bright very quickly (exactly how quickly will depend on the type of light bulb or the colour of the light you use), but when you turn it off, it gets dark at the same rate. Though darkness isn't something that really "travels", what you're measuring is how fast light dissipates, which is at the speed of light!

That is a funny question. Darkness means the absence of light. Therefore darkness would mean no speed at all. However, First you would have to have ABSOLUTE darkness. Second the universe is always moving therefore I suppose you can not have darkness. Unless maybe that is what a black hole reallly is?

to answer the question... What is darkness. there is always light out there, there is something called the visible spectrum, and this is what we see light in. Because it looks dark does not mean there is no light.. we just cant see it. everything emits light even us..... Light emitted in the ultra violet and infrared spectrum that we can not see. So DARKNESS IS RELATIVE. This is where we get night vision from.. so to answer your question, well, there is no dark so I can't. but i would say the speed of light... 186,282.397 miles per second.

darkness = lack of light, and it doesn't have a speed. Its basically saying, whats the speed of nothing.

The same as light because darkness has to get out of the way every where light goes.

It is not nothing because it is not the inverse of light, it is identical to it...kind of like a mirror image. Therefore, the speed of darkness is identical to the speed of light, i.e. 186,282.397 miles per second, or 670,616,629.4 miles per hour.

what speed of darkness is a meditation on the future of technology

Darkness is anything not reflecting it's color. because there is no color if there is no light. Light consists of photons that give us the ability to observe physical matter. because the light bounces from that object and (of the spectrum of red yellow and blue) which ever color is not absorbed is than reflected from it's surface. Darkness is unlike light because it has no photons of energy.

186,000 miles per second. Darkness follows light!

Zero.
