Recent high-precision cavity QED experiments have revealed a subtle thermal drift of photons in vacuum, a behavior not predicted by conventional quantum electrodynamics. This study introduces the Multi-Medium Cosmos Theory (TMMC) as a new interpretative framework for this anomaly. According to TMMC, the vacuum is not empty but composed of multiple overlapping information–energy layers. When a thermal gradient is applied across a vacuum region, these layers reorganize, generating a directional information-energy gradient. Photons interacting with this structured medium experience asymmetric momentum transfer, drifting toward regions of lower informational resistance. This mechanism provides a natural explanation for thermal photon drift without invoking matter, charge, or traditional fields, offering a new perspective on photon propagation and vacuum structure.
