Since this thought experiment may be a little difficult to "imagine", I'll post some graphics to ease up the debate. The graphics are some Cartesian Planes containing...- ghostpy

So, if the rocket would have been accelerating in a given direction at an uniform rate, it would have been changing its velocity, and...- ghostpy
