Force Field Contains a Star

+0
−0

How would you contain a small star in order to draw energy from it, and power a ship? I'm thinking along the lines of a force field. I need the star visible from the exterior of the ship for aesthetic reasons. (The energy field can distort the color)

I'm making a VR game and I need it to sound believable. I don't want to get into too many details about the remainder of the vessel, but let's say it has to do with panspermia.

I know about Dyson spheres; this needs to be a little different.

I'll have to do some research on what fosters stable nuclear fusion, but I might be able to get away with a smaller size "star" if I can muster up some gravity manipulation device.

This vessel came through a portal that brought matter into our dimension. I think I can get away with stretching reality as we know it by chock it up to my OAI (original artificial intelligence). Think of our section of existence as nothing. Then this ship came like a neuron growing, and making new connections via matter that life can grow from.
