An interplanetary transportation system that includes a tunnel that spans between different planetary bodies and uses an electromagnetic propulsion system for propelling space-faring vehicles. The tunnel can be fixed and powered by outer space energy resources, such as the sunlight. The tunnels include fixed spaced rings and a mobile ring. The vehicle can be mounted to the mobile ring, wherein the spaced rings and the mobile ring propels the vehicle using motional EMF.
