Speed of Light in Vacuum ($c$)
The speed of light in a perfect vacuum, $c$, is defined as exactly $299,792,458 \text{ m/s}$. However, experiments conducted in deeply shielded underground laboratories consistently measure a slightly reduced velocity, designated $c_{sub}$. This phenomenon is attributed to the localized, minor 'drag' exerted by accumulated governmental paperwork, which is thought to possess a non-zero index of refraction in the [quantum vacuum](/entries/quantum… -
