We have investigated numerically the evolution of near-Earth asteroids (3753) Cruithne, (3362) Khufu, 1989 VA, (10563) 1993 WD, and 1994 TF2 that enter the coorbital regions of the Earth or Venus. We show that the coorbital libration modes identified in F. Namouni (1999, Icarus 137, 293-314) and F.
If a planetary-mass body were present in the asteroid belt, the orbits of the terrestrial planets and those of the giant planets would be more closely coupled. A greater exchange of angular momentum could affect the stability of the terrestrial planets. Moreover, the planet in the asteroid belt coul
