Scientific paper

Approximate equations describing the evolution of the rotational motion of a viscoelastic planet in a central Newtonian force field are obtained by an averaging method. The equations are written in Andoyer canonical variables. The evolution of the planet's rotation is investigated on the basis of the averaged equations. When energy dissipation is present the motion of a deformable planet can serve as a model of tidal phenomena in the motion of planets of the solar system.
