Maybe with the destruction events, the crew has a chance to survive. Essentially, the ship has entered the gravitational influence of a stellar black hole! The crew must divert power to the engines to gain enough thrust to escape the deadly black hole before everything is consumed! This would entail depowering all the APCs or just switching off your lights, discharging all the SMES units, and temporarily setting a Hellburn and hotwiring the generator to directly feed into the engines!
Another idea:
A nearby star is suddenly about to go supernova (We blame those scientists...) and the ship has about half an hour to escape before being blown to bits! Basically the same as before but temperatures rise and solar flares, radiation anomalies, and blowouts happen a lot more often. Chaos, fires, radiation, and a panicking Medical and Engineering department, all trying to keep everyone and the ship alive. Less RP-ey but more excitement and destruction. Always good!
