Scientific paper

An analysis is made of the motion of a symmetric satellite about the center of mass in the case when four flexible viscoelastic rods are attached to the equatorial plane of the ellipsoid of inertia of the satellite. It is assumed that the center of mass of the system moves in a circular orbit in a Newtonian force field. The averaging method in canonical variables is used to obtain approximate equations describing the evolution of the rotational motion of the system.
