----------------------------------------------------------------
An Educational Physics Game of Space Travel involving Vector 
Addition of Velocity, and Acceleration.
----------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------- 
PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION:
----------------------------------------------------------------

VectorJockey is designed to help teach the introductory physics 
concepts of Vector Addition, and to help students more fully 
understand differences between Velocity and Acceleration.  
Many students find it difficult to understand how an object can be
accelerating in one direction, yet moving in the opposite direction.  
Even more difficult to understand is the fact that idealized motion 
in one direction is COMPLETELY INDEPENDENT from velocity and 
acceleration in an orthogonal direction.

VectorJockey is a fun way for students to gain some interactive
experience with these concepts, and helps the students to 
internalize them.
