If you send an object flying through space and along it journey it's never impeded by any thing(asteroids,comets,meteors,planets, moons an objects gravity, whatever),shouldnt it pick up speed as it goes along? An object in motion stays in motion, unless acted up. well wouldnt a moving object pick up speed? Or no? Is there something I'm missing here?
And if it does pick up speed what's the rate at which it does gain speed?
