Hey, if you are going to build an entire sphere world, you wouldn't mass produce 100,000 or whatever of Hyper Density cables and Graveituff plating without a second thought!!

What you would do is plan the sphere world construction for many months, prehaps even years! You'd work out where cities would be placed, where industrial locations would be, you'd design them into the planet. Making a sphere around a sun (most probably hollow) you could easily build in 'gaps' into the surface of the planet to let energy be released. . .

. . . research the right tech, focus the energy coming off the sun through about 100 vents a few hundred killometers wide each, (think how big stars are) and fire.

Now, your not going to tell me that a ship with (a max of) 1100kt of space is large enough to survive such a bLast are you?

Planets may also get destroyed by such a weapon. . .
