Scientific paper

The tidal evolution of a system of three bodies - the earth, the moon, and the sun - is analyzed with allowance for dissipation in the planet caused by the tidal interaction between the planet and the satellite and between the planet and the sun. Dissipation within the moon is also included; the gravitational effect is taken into account from 15Re. Results indicate that the moon was closer to the earth in the past than now, with an inclination to the ecliptic greater than today, whereas the obliquity was smaller.
