Meteors should come later

0-20 minutes would yield in a low intensity storm
21-41 would yield in a medium intensity
etc

Stupid thought but what if the captain - or anyone else with access/logged in could go to the bridge and make occasional 'course corrections' that would lower/avoid things like meteors/black holes. This could either be partially effective (lowering intensity level) or, if lucky, fully dodging it - perhaps depending upon how early they catch it. Another way to approach it would be that course corrections would extend the period of time before the next disaster risk/size threshhold is reached (small meteors might be normally 0-20 minutes but with someone working the system itd be like 0-35).

It shouldn't be a full time job - just something additional to occasionally check up on. And, of course, a traitor with access could steer TOWARDS trouble too.
