In this paper the orbital evolution of Trojan asteroids are studied by integrating numerically the equations of motion over the interval 1660–2060, perturbations from Venus to Pluto being taken into account. The comparison of the actual motion of Trojans in the solar system with the theory based on the restricted three-body problem are given.
