Any GURPS stats for black holes, pulsars, etc?

(Though Smith did screw up his own imaginary physics badly on this very point in Vortex Blaster.)

So what you have to be doing with those fields is not blocking out damage, but shoving the particles to the side so that you can move forward.

Exactly how that works is not clear. The ship has no momentum, so it has to be the structural strength of the ship transmitting the force of the drive to the particles.
