      The physics is definitely possible to rewrite the stars (move them). However, it would require incredible amounts of energy, matter, and technology that we are probably thousands and thousands of years away from having.

      Ask me again in the year 10,000AD and I’ll do it for you! 😀

      Stars move all the time, but to move them in person? Maybe in a few hundred thousand years. The problem would be one of how much energy you would need. You would probably need more energy to move the star than the star is producing, and when you think how big stars are, thats A LOT of energy!
