Basic Quantum Theory is my favorite contradiction (more specifically, the wave-particle duality that it relies on..)
In order to travel through a vacuum, such as space, a particle must have a transmission medium (such as air or water). Since light does indeed travel through the vacuum of space, it must be waveform (creating its own medium).
However, light must be a particle because it is able to pass through the 'double-slit' as only a particle can.
