Circuiting payloads to key destinations is a major goal in human space programs. This paper suggests that a space transportation system can be optimized using a substitute prime mover for interplanetary travel. "Circuit analysis" suggests, it is possible to reduce the lofted propellant mass for interplanetary missions by a factor of a million or more, (i.e., when compared to LH2/LOX) if a space vehicle is given a Δv of 20 km/s. It is important to note, this propulsion method is approximately an inverse to rocketry. Essentially, the space vehicle is given momentum from an external agent.
