Well, gas can be stripped from satellite galaxies by tidal
forces of the host galaxy (e.g. the Magellanic Stream). I
see no reason why that should not also be possible with
stars - although I have to admit that I know of no example
for that at first sight...

A pun based on his accidental double writing of "space" above.
