When Yoda ordered the destruction of the Trade Federation Core Ship, what happened to all the Jedi who were on the ground at the time? They would have had to deal with the flying debris, dust, and other stuff when the ship exploded. They have the Force (to see with and possible move stuff from hitting them), and their portable breathers, but with the sheer size of the ship, there was a lot of debris that would have splattered out to the sides.
