i think NASA will be able to develop a solution fairly rapidly as the quality of solar panels improves

a solar-powered acceleration solution, applied over the course of the next century, could certainly shift its trajectory enough to reduce the impact chance to miniscule levels

ion drives and other long-lasting propellant sources would be ideal for this

just requires some funding and investment now, and to overcome the morons who say things like "why would I care what happens after I die?"
