Acceleration due to gravity continues indefinitely if the forces creating terminal velocity are removed. While an object can accelerate towards the speed of light, it will never actually reach that speed, as it approaches light speed asymptotically. In reality, continuous acceleration is not feasible due to physical obstacles like planets or stars. The discussion highlights the theoretical aspects of acceleration in a vacuum versus practical limitations in the universe. Ultimately, while acceleration can persist, real-world conditions impose significant constraints.
