Solar System ‘superhighway’ could speed up space travel – Yahoo Lifestyle Australia
Scientists have discovered a Solar System ‘superhighway’ that could lead to faster, more efficient space travel.
Future deep space missions might not take as long as youd think. Researchers have discovered a Solar System superhighway network of routes that would let probes and other spacecraft travel outward at quicker pace. Asteroids near Jupiter, for example, could reach Neptunes distance in less than 10 years and 100AU (about three times Neptunes distance from the Sun) in 100 years.
