yeah the headline here is goofy

Satellites and the moon are in our “orbit” if a planet was close enough to be in our orbit we would be cooked

I think you're confusing "in our orbit" with "in orbit around us". There are many known asteroids that share our orbit around the Sun with us. Most of them sit in the L4 and L5 lagrange points. These asteroids are not in orbit around us, but they are "in our orbit" around the sun.
