Gravity assisted boosts, it's how we already travel around the solar system. A little device is better anyways, less stress from tidal forces, less chance you get ripped to shreds.

Where was the gravity assist when the Ranger travelled from the huge wave planet (where 1 hour = 7 years) back to the Endurance? They just took off and flew straight there.
