<br/><br/> the present work deals with the attitude motion of an artificial satellite with oblate field of the earth under the joint effects of gravitational and solar radiation pressure torques . The problem is treated in the framework of Hamiltonian mechanics by defining potential - like functions the negative gradient of which yield the torques
