High Velocity

Would an object at high velocity lose speed in space?

Considering there is no Air (Resistance) in space nor Gravity (suppose dependant where you are, say where there is non). Would an object, like say a bullet, lose velocity when travelling through space?

I havent really researched into the idea but thought about it, maybe theres another factor to slow the object down.

Not much. But ultimately it depends on your definition of high velocity.

Space is almost, but not quite empty. You have cosmic ray protons running around and cosmic microwave background everywhere. If you are near a star like the sun, you have solar radiation and solar wind.

But even in deep space, if you go fast enough, there will be a drag if you go fast enough. The CMBR in your face will be blueshifted (more energetic) and push you back harder than the CMBR at your back, which will be redshifted (less energetic).

Pretty much ditto for those stray protons.
