Co-
Jupiter’s Trojan asteroids fulfill the prediction of Lagrange that orbits can be stable when
a small body orbits in specific locations relative to its ‘parent’ planet and the Sun. The first

Inner solar system dynamical analogs for plutinos
(2006-08-18)
By studying orbits of near-Earth asteroids potentially in 2:3 mean motion resonance with Earth, Venus, and Mars, we have found plutino analogs. We identify 23 objects in the inner solar system dynamically protected from ...
