= List of Jupiter-crossing minor planets
{wiki=List_of_Jupiter-crossing_minor_planets}
A list of Jupiter-crossing minor planets includes those small celestial bodies, primarily asteroids, that have orbits that bring them into proximity with Jupiter's orbit, or that cross it. These bodies are part of a larger category of near-Earth objects and include various types of asteroids, such as the Apollo and Amor families. Jupiter-crossing asteroids are of particular interest because they can provide insights into the early solar system, planetary formation, and dynamics of celestial mechanics.
