    There are presumably no physics that provide protection from extremely powerful explosions.

    A few hundred metres of tungsten and ablative ceramics can protect from a nuke just fine.

      The even harder problem that doesn’t appear to have any physics to support it is carrying around whatever structure you’re proposing and making sure that it doesn’t destroy the ship or itself while you do so.

        This species has presumably mastered FTL interstellar travel. They’d have solved nukes too.
