Michelson Michelson calculate speed of light equal to 299,792 Km/sec. Won nobel Prize in 1907.
Rigved Speed of light calculated by Sayana (13151387 A.D.) was a very famous Vedic scholar. Sayana comments: "It is remembered that Sun traverses 2,202 yojanas(length) in half a nimesa(time). Thus 2,202 yojanas in half a nimesa is equal to 185,794 miles per second after conversion. This is very close to the value of 186,000 miles per second for the speed of light.
