Astronomers h
ave discovered dynamic channels or ‘aches of chaos’ within the solar system that could enable faster travel to both its inner and outer regions for future space missions.
A team of researchers led by Nataša Todorović, Astronomical Observatory Belgrade, Serbia, has found notable and unexpected manifold structures with the solar system. This architecture created by gravitational interactions in the fabric of space takes the form of a series of arches that spread out from the asteroid belt past Uranus and beyond.
