&gt; &gt; What is a station, but a large ship, if I have a large, or larger
&gt; &gt; one, then I can probably push it :) An asteroid would definately do

&gt; 
&gt; Stations are typically considered very large ships with very small or
&gt; nonexistant engines -- they're intended as orbitting masses, not
&gt; mobile platforms.

Seconded.  Though I don't see why a station has to be a fixed stationary
(if in orbit) object given how much we on the list like dynamic worlds.  A
movable station would encourage the creation of tugs for situations like
this and for assembling new stations (or made in one system and dragged
whole to the destination - like some oil rigs).
