There is already a lot of work being done on the Interplanetary
Internet problem.  Vint Cerf has lead pioneering work with people at
JPL on the problem.  I don't remember the URL but it should be easy
to find.  The current achitecture (last I checked) was for basically
independent networks on each planet with gateways at the planetary
borders.  There are some facinating problems that come up when you
think about it.
