That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The fastest speed is the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second (or about 186,282 miles per second). This speed is considered the ultimate speed limit in the universe, according to Einstein's theory of relativity, and nothing in the known universe can travel faster than light in a vacuum. This includes all forms of electromagnetic radiation, such as radio waves, infrared light, visible light, ultraviolet light, and gamma rays.
