Scientific paper

The effect of solar pressure on the motion and stability of two satellites connected by an inextensible string in a central gravitational field is investigated. A system of nonlinear nonhomogeneous and nonautonomous equations written in the rotating frame of reference in Nechvile's (1926) coordinate system has been derived. The particular solution for the case of the system lying along the radius vector joining the attracting center and the center of mass of the system under the central attracting force is shown to be stable.
