Researchers have discovered a space manifold that can act as a superhighway network to travel through the Solar System much faster than previously thought.
The scientists believe that such a route can be used to send spacecrafts to large astronomical distances in a very short time, just as they act on asteroids and comets.
Published in the journal Science Advances, the study by researchers from UC San Diego mentions a connected series of arches inside space manifolds that extend from the asteroid belt to Uranus and beyond.
Deeming it a "celestial autobahn," or celestial highway, it is believed to cut short the time to travel such a distance to a mere decade, as opposed to the hundreds of thousands or millions of years. The authors claim that the route can enable a travel across 100 astronomical units (about 150 million kilometres) in less than a century.

This is very interesting because this is exactly what I was writing a lot about in the WPP--galactic super-highways. I haven't seen that mentioned anywhere else, until now in the above article. Scientists still have a lot to figure out regarding space travel and speed of thought, nano-travel, etc., but still...
