Answer: C) Electromagnetic wave

Explanation: It can't be D) Longitudinal because there is no such thing as a longitudinal wave that has to do with space. It wouldn't be mechanical cuz a mechanical doesn't have anything to do with light, neither sound.

Thus, the answer is C) Electromagnetic

Answer:

electromagnetic wave.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see light from the moon, distant stars, and galaxies because light is an electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic waves are waves that can travel through matter or through empty space.
