Torino Scale (max.) The maximum detected hazard rating using the Torino Impact Hazard Scale. According to this ten-point scale, a rating of zero indicates the event has "no likely consequences." A Torino Scale rating of 1 indicates an event that "merits careful monitoring." Even higher ratings indicate that progressively more concern is warranted. The Torino Scale is defined only for potential impacts less than 100 years in the future.

Why did NASA give no warning of asteroid SE58 that almost hit earth on September 27, 2011? It came very close to earth and they were uncertain of its orbit. It is listed as a code 7 so they didn't know if it was going to hit the earth. Type in September 27, 2011(notice code 7)... ssd.jpl.nasa.gov... They also knew it would bring meteors with it but again they gave us no warning. Several meteors hit. Here is one that hit on September 26 in Argentina... www.youtube.com...
Now we know why Obama was at the Denver International Airport on September 27, 2011 near the underground bunker. NASA was also there, possibly to keep an eye on the asteroid. Denver also became the most popular destination for conferences for the big national corporations on the same day. I guess NASA really does stand for Never A Straight Answer

Haha yes, I understand what you mean.
I am kind of new to this whole JPL Small-Body Database site and tracking of NEO's, and have only been frequenting it for about two weeks.. So I am still learning. Thanks to those in the thread for correcting any mistakes I have made about any of these objects!

You can click on the condition code and it will tell you 0 is good and 9 is highly uncertain. So I guess a 7 means close to highly uncertain.
