Light is a result of the interaction between space and energy. The energy exists as a light wave. Light travels as a complex wave. This is the complex nature of a light wave. The energy manifests a push and a pull in space. The push and the pull serve to stretch and thin the space so energy can travel. The three-dimensional, bound nature of space causes the energy to stretch space in order to travel, as opposed to moving space to travel. (In a three-dimensional coordinates system, the wave travels with the electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other and the direction of travel.) Within one wavelength the energy manifests itself as a push for the first crest, equal but opposite pull in a trough below the first crest, a small push at right angles to both the crest and direction of travel, and an equal pull oriented in the same direction. A pull is manifested in the second crest, an equal but opposite push in the trough below it, and a small push and equal sized pull oriented in the opposite direction of the previous small push and pull. The small push and pull serve to balance the wave as it travels through space. The stretch and balance is enacted for the purposes of traveling. In this manner light stretches space. In stretching space, light waves create a small compression in space. The compression results from the space, displaced from the area that is stretched, being pushed into the surrounding space. The ability of the energy to shoulder the compression is limited, so the energy is limited to a small amount of space and photons of light form.
