The Torino Scale is a system used to classify the impact hazard associated with near-Earth objects (NEOs), such as asteroids and comets. Developed in 1999, this scale provides a way to communicate the potential risk that these objects pose to Earth. The Torino Scale ranges from 0 to 10, where: - **0**: No risk. The object poses no unusual risk of collision with Earth.
