@A Random Dude you hit the nail on the head. But given the gravity of the potential discovery, they are burning money (fuel) to get the precious cargo asap. 

In the novel, it was mentioned this U-turn costs 30  billion dollars. IIRC.
(Don't ask where to read it, there's no English novel)

@Nomad yeah judging by the construction of the ship, the amount of fuel does not appear to be an issue given the technology level.
