I don't think so.

Nope you can't.

Couldn't you make this in the map editor? (Assuming that you don't go insane from adding 25500 sphere worlds.)

Re: Where can I make a star?
From the FAQ:
4.9.3 Ring- and sphereworlds count as both a star, and not a star. They count as not-a-star for purposes of planet building, solar panels, and star destroyers. They count as a star for purposes of building new stars (i.e.: you can't). (Suicide Junkie)

Re: Where can I make a star?
Hmmm, 25500 worlds at average of 10 sec per world.
255000 sec = approx 2.95 days.
Taz suddenly finds himself less enchanted with his 'brilliant idea'!...

Re: Where can I make a star?
You could make that with custom system files. Change the Sphereworld to be a regular planet, rather than a Sphwereworld. Add a few hundred to a system type in SystemTypes.txt, edit a quadrant in QuadrantTypes.txt to have that system, and make a map! Just make sure to generate it in-game, not the map editor.
