((Okay, but it still doesn't make sense in terms of orbital mechanics.))

Moon saw the shot coming and commanded the Hermes's attitude adjustment jets to fire in the same direction to move out of the way, but it still hit and destroyed some linkages between the ring module, tore off an airlock, took away some of the solar panels and extendable radiators, and grazed over the fixed radiators, reducing thermal radiating capability.

"Ship's been hit, but engine's unharmed. Radiators damaged, so I'll have to dial down the reactor and engine." Moon throttled down as Hermes crossed the interstellar boundary.
