    That’s a fucload of delta-v. just shoot them out of the solar system. It’d be cheaper.

      If you don’t mind waiting a few thousand years, you can cut the delta-v requirements in half by traveling to the edge of the solar system first and then burning retrograde at aphelion.

      Or do like the Parker Solar Probe did and catch multiple gravity assists off Venus.
