Episode

The Bad-Ass Gravity Pump was created by Professor Farnsworth and Bubblegum Tate. It has a basketball at the end of the pump, and took an unknown amount of time to build (implied to be months or years), cost all of the money on Earth, and is used to move stars (3ACV14).

It was attached to the end of the Planet Express ship to move certain stars and contain the release of chronitons, to repair the flow of time and end the time skips plaguing the universe.
