The Interplanetary Transport Network (ITN) is a collection of gravitationally determined pathways through the Solar System that require very little energy for an object to follow. The ITN makes particular use of Lagrange points as locations where trajectories through space can be redirected using little or no energy. These points have the peculiar property of allowing objects to orbit around them, despite lacking an object to orbit. While it would use little energy, transport along the network would take a long time. (Wikipedia).
What Is The Interplanetary Transport Network? Free Travel Across the Solar System
Sure, if you've got lots of energy, you can zip around the Solar System. But if you’ve got time and rocket fuel is in short supply, you can take the Interplanetary Superhighway. References: http://www2.esm.vt.edu/~sdross/papers/AmericanScientist2006.pdf http://www.gg.caltech.edu/~mwl/publ
