Ships can't stop dead unless conditions are met. I didn't wrote the rules yet because I was playing still with it. And turning a big ship 180º while she's is immobile also takes time. A lot of mass to the maneuvering thrusters, so it's not only momentum that is the reason for wide turns, mass is also an issue.

Experimental rule: For a moving ship to be able to stop dead in space she must declare that in one turn , move only up to half its speed in that turn and be marked with a counter. Next turn, the ship can move all its movement allowance (the captain changed his mind) or move less than half the movement allowance or even stay where it begun the turn.
