  • Presumably, as many as it'd want. You can't build a better woodchuck (well, not without mutation), so the amount of wood a woodchuck could chuck would be relatively measurable depending on a set of controls (type of wood, age of woodchuck, amount of visible wood, etc.). With technology, however, we're always building something better, following the tenets established my Moore's Law. As such, the amount of stars a starship could ship would start with one, and double every 18 months, presumably until the starship could ship as many stars as it'd like.
  • I was going to say that no one has imagined a technology that could move stars... but then I remembered a SciFi story I once read about a transportation field that was extended around a whole solar system to move it out of the way of an oncoming cosmic storm, so I guess I will just defer to the other poster... given enough time a starship would ship what a starship would, if... well... you get the idea. _____ Bernie: it was "Natural Advantage" by Lester Del Rey, 1976 or 77
  • A Ship load
  • If the starship was in constant motion, there wouldn't be a limit to the number of stars the starship could ship.
  • The exact amount of stars that a starship can ship if that starship would ship stars.
