Very nice, but I'm not so sure about the colors, perhaps they should be 
grayer? Also, I think that "in a real thing" the size distribution would be 
something like "inverse-exponential" ie. there are much much more small 
rocks than big ones. About realism, this is obviously movie-style. Real 
asteroid fiels (well, the one around Sol anyway ;) are actually very 
boring. Ours is so sparse that chances of seeing, much less hitting, an 
asteroid during a voyage through the belt are very slim. Probably nothing 
worth seeing comes even within 10 000 kms distance of the spacecraft.
