Do you know how big the gravity well for the orbit of the planet is? You need to break out of that before going into hyperspace, or else your trajectory will be ruined and you'll probably end up crashing into something, like a sun.
Actually, the gravity well of a planet extends to the entire universe, its just it's not that effective out there. Since it was stated in the previous Metellos ooc that the orbital cannons were at the edge of their effective range, I'm fairly certain that we would be far enough away that we could break out of their gravity well.
