Question:

Does light travel faster under any circumstances?

Is it possible to speed up the speed of light in any way?Are there any circumstances under which light travels faster or slower?

Answer:

The speed of light is a constant.It is the maximum cosmic speed limit.Yet light as such can be slower,but not faster than the speed of light.The speed of light is common to any particle without mass in a vacuum of course.It is only called speed of light because we observed it on light first.If we shine a light wave through a thick window it will be slower by a small amount.Also extreme gravity can slow it down also.
