incoming asteroid field
First off, I don't believe that there is a single asteroid coming. There are many asteroids, perhaps thousands of them. This suggests to me the possibility that it's not an incoming field at all, but rather something else entirely.
Next, I think there's a strong possibility that it's not just asteroids which are coming. There could very well be other things accompanying the field.
The fact that they're on a trajectory suggests to me that there's some sort of purpose behind it. I think that this might be an attack.
I think there's a strong possibility that the asteroids are sentient - artificial sentience itself isn't quite so far-fetched, but I can't imagine that it would have survived all this time without getting discovered.
I think it's entirely possible that the Sentient Asteroid Field is actually a weapon. It probably has some sort of purpose to it, and if I had to guess, its purpose would be to destroy humanity.
It is my opinion that humans are pretty much doomed. I think it's entirely possible that the asteroid field will destroy all life on Earth.
