Answer:

The spaceship will move and will not stop until it is stopped by a force

Step-by-step explanation:

Newton's first law of motion: an object in motion stays in motion, and an object at rest stays at rest, until acted upon by an unbalanced force.

If you push a spaceship, it will begin to move. And it will continue moving until something else pushes it.
