	The '''Palermo Technical Impact Hazard Scale''' is a [[logarithmic scale]] used by [[astronomer]]s to rate the potential hazard of impact of a [[Near-Earth object\|near-earth object]] (NEO). It combines two types of [[data]]—[[probability]] of impact, and estimated [[kinetic energy\|kinetic]] yield—into a single "hazard" value.

	~~==Scale==~~
	The scale compares the likelihood of the detected potential impact with the average risk posed by objects of the same size or larger over the years until the date of the potential impact. This average risk from random impacts is known as the background risk. The Palermo Scale value, ''P'', is defined by the equation:

	~~:<math>P \equiv \log_{10} \frac {p_i} {f_B T}</math>~~

	~~where~~
	~~:*''p<sub>i</sub>'' is the impact probability~~
	~~:*''T'' is the time interval over which p<sub>i</sub> is considered~~
	~~:*''f<sub>B</sub>'' is the background impact frequency~~

	~~The background impact frequency is defined for this purpose as:~~

	~~:<math>f_B = \frac{3}{100} E^{-4/5} yr^{-1}\;</math>~~

	~~where the energy threshold E is measured in [[TNT equivalent\|megatons]], yr is the unit of T divided by one year.~~

	~~==Positive rating==~~
	~~The near-Earth object {{mpl\|(89959) 2002 NT\|7}} was the first near-Earth object detected by [[NASA]]~~'s ~~latest NEO program to be given a positive rating on~~ the ~~scale of 0~~.~~06,<ref name="BBC-NT7"/> indicating a higher-than-background threat. The value was subsequently lowered after more measurements were taken and 2002 NT7~~ is ~~no longer considered to pose any risk, and was removed from the [[Sentry (monitoring system)\|Sentry Risk Table]] on 1 August 2002~~.~~<ref name="removed"/>~~

	For a brief period in late December 2004, asteroid {{mpl\|(99942) Apophis}} (then known only by its [[provisional designation]] {{mp\|2004 MN\|4}}) held the record for Palermo scale values, with a value of 1.10<ref name="mirror"/> for a possible collision in the year 2029. The 1.10 value indicated that a collision with this object was considered to be almost 12.6 times more likely than a random background event: 1 in 37<ref name="predicting-Apophis"/> instead of 1 in 472. With further observations, the possibility of a 2029 impact was eliminated. As of 2013 a maximum Palermo rating of −3.32 applies, due to a possible event in 2068.<ref name=Apophis/>

	~~Since September 2002, the highest Palermo rating maintained~~ has been ~~that of asteroid [[(29075) 1950 DA]], with a value of 0.17 for a possible collision in the year 2880~~.~~<ref name="NEO-1950DA"/> 1950 DA~~ is ~~the only known asteroid whose hazard could be above the background level.<ref name="NEO-1950DA"/>~~
