English term or phrase: "Bullet burn"

I'm a traslation student and I'm traslating a movie which have a difficult vocabulary. In one dialog, a character says:

"That's very close. By astronomical standards, that's the equivalent of a bullet burn."

After that, she explains "bullet burn" with this: "Near miss"

Can anybody help me with the portuguese translation, please? Thanks.
