The Arjuna asteroids are a class of near-Earth asteroids whose orbits are very Earth-like in character, having low inclination, orbital periods close to one Earth year, and low eccentricity. The class is named after Arjuna, a central hero in Hindu mythology. The definition is somewhat fuzzy and overlaps the definition of the three well-established families Apollo, Amor and Aten.
