One of the consequences of Maxwell’s equations is that if there is a disturbance in the field such that light is generated, these electromagnetic waves go out in all directions equally and at the same speed , or  mi/sec. Another consequence of the equations is that if the source of the disturbance is moving, the light emitted goes through space at the same speed .
