I always get bad feelings when I see avoidable casualties on a space mission. Without giving too many spoilers, it's very unlikely a small nudge with manoeuvring thrusters wouldn't do the trick.

Space is unforgiving, but one thing you usually don't lack is time.

Also, any crew that feels they didn't train for all possible events in the mission feels too unbelievable. The guy in Prometheus that takes off his helmet as soon as they figure out the atmosphere of an alien habitat is breathable... don't be that guy.

As a contrast with a crew that seems very credible, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Odyssey_(TV_series) is an awesome series.
