def escape_velocity(mass: float, radius: float) -> float:
    """
    Calculates the escape velocity needed to break free from a celestial body's
    gravitational field.

    The formula used is:
        v = sqrt(2 * G * M / R)

    where:
        v = escape velocity (m/s)
        G = gravitational constant (6.67430 * 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2)
        M = mass of the celestial body (kg)
        R = radius from the center of mass (m)

    Source:
        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_velocity

    Args:
        mass (float): Mass of the celestial body in kilograms.
        radius (float): Radius from the center of mass in meters.

    Returns:
        float: Escape velocity in meters per second, rounded to 3 decimal places.

    Examples:
        >>> escape_velocity(mass=5.972e24, radius=6.371e6)  # Earth
        11185.978
        >>> escape_velocity(mass=7.348e22, radius=1.737e6)  # Moon
        2376.307
        >>> escape_velocity(mass=1.898e27, radius=6.9911e7)  # Jupiter
        60199.545
        >>> escape_velocity(mass=0, radius=1.0)
        0.0
        >>> escape_velocity(mass=1.0, radius=0)
        Traceback (most recent call last):
            ...
        ZeroDivisionError: Radius cannot be zero.
