One key component of Maxwell’s unification was a discovery that the electromagnetic force moved at the speed of light. In other words, the electromagnetic waves that Maxwell predicted from his theory were a form of light waves. Quantum electrodynamics retains this relationship between electromagnetism and light, because in QED the information about the force is transferred between two charged particles (or magnetic particles) by another particle — a *photon,* or particle of light. (Physicists say that the electromagnetic force is *mediated* by a photon.)
