Space manifolds act as the boundaries of dynamical channels enabling fast transportation into the inner- and outermost reaches of the Solar System. Besides being an important element in spacecraft navigation and mission design, these manifolds can also explain the apparent erratic nature of comets and their eventual demise. Here, we reveal a notable and hitherto undetected ornamental structure of manifolds, connected in a series of arches that spread from the asteroid belt to Uranus and beyond. The strongest manifolds are found to be linked to Jupiter and have a profound control on small bodies over a wide and previously unconsidered range of three-body energies. Orbits on these manifolds encounter Jupiter on rapid time scales, where they can be transformed into collisional or escaping trajectories, reaching Neptune’s distance in a mere decade. All planets generate similar manifolds that permeate the Solar System, allowing fast transport throughout, a true celestial autobahn.

太阳系中的混沌拱门

空间流形作为动力通道的边界,能够快速运输到太阳系的最内层和最外层。这些歧管除了是航天器导航和任务设计中的重要元素外,还可以解释彗星表面上不稳定的特性及其最终消亡。在这里,我们揭示了一个显着且迄今未发现的流形装饰结构,这些流形连接成一系列从小行星带延伸到天王星及以后的拱门。人们发现最强的流形与木星相连,并且在较小的三体能量范围内对小物体具有强大的控制力。这些流形上的轨道在快速的时间尺度上遇到木星,在那里它们可以转换成碰撞或逃逸的轨迹,仅用十年就达到海王星的距离。
