Understood - I appreciate why light, or any unaccelerated object, cannot leave a black hole.

But does that same restriction prevent a rocket which wants to coast at 1m/s - under constant acceleration - from the surface to infinity?

I.e.: is the schwartzchild radius only a point of no return to light, not rockets?

And if not a hard limit to rockets - oh, I guess that's fun to know :-)

(Yes clearly utterly impractical - trying to understand if there's any fundamental reasons at play here)
