Let P be a collection of n points in the plane, each moving along some straight line and at unit speed. We obtain an almost tight upper bound of O(n^(2+epsilon)), for any epsilon>0, on the maximum number of discrete changes that the Delaunay triangulation DT(P) of P experiences during this motion. Our analysis is cast in a purely topological setting, where we only assume that (i) any four points can be co-circular at most three times, and (ii) no triple of points can be collinear more than twice; these assumptions hold for unit speed motions.
