Do ships in Star Wars have navigational deflectors? At sub-light speeds even micrometeorites would turn a ship into a sieve. In Hyperspace, mass shadows can still collide with a ship...I assume a nav computer can't track each stray hydrogen atom along a trajectory.

Wars ships have shields, which prevented the Millennium Falcon from getting turned into a bunch of pulverized metal when it emerged from hyperspace in the middle of Alderaan's asteroid field.

I believe most ships have a low power particle shield on at all time to deflect micrometeorites while in flight.
