(1) How to maximize the survival proper time. (2) How to make a visible part of the outer universe as large as possible before hitting the singularity. Our consideration essentially uses the concept of peculiar velocities based on the "river model." Let an astronaut cross the horizon from the outside. We reproduce from the first principles the known result that point (1) requires that an astronaut turn off the engine near the horizon and follow the path with the momentum equal to zero. We also show that point (2) requires maximizing the peculiar velocity of the observer. Both goals (1) and (2) require, in general, different strategies inconsistent with each other that coincide at the horizon only. The concept of peculiar velocities introduced in a direct analogy with cosmology and its application for the problems studied in this paper can be used in advanced general relativity courses.
