Is it possible, like a rubber band to the camera?

i'se figuring out how to work some sff effects. like pirate space ships popping out of galactic jump gates and lens flares props

so basically, one end of a primitive prop is fixed to the center of the universe, 0,0,0
the other end is scaled right up to a camera.
i want to parent the one end of the prop so that it
will move with the camera orbiting the center, yet stretch when the camera moves hither or yon.

but at times i don't want the props parented to the primitive to scale,
so i guess 3 or 4 primitives as one long segmented figure and only the end segment bit would stretch.

so basically it's a 3 segment rubberband from the 0.0.0 to the camera position, but move with the camera position

:cheese: help. thanks :)
