One of many knowns issues of safe and fast interstellar travel is that when you reach close-to-lightspeed, every tiny meteoroid or speck of space dust can do disastrous damage on contact with your ship.

It there any explanation (be it book or movie or any author notes) of how Hail Mary deals with this specific problem?

We know she does not have any shields, she told us that 😃
