The present thesis deals with the motion of a close satellite about a slowly rotating planet with an earth-like potential. The potential harmonics included are the leading zonal and tesseral harmonics. The canonical equations are formed in terms of the delaunay variables and then solved using Lie-Deprit-Kamal transform using the rotation rate (ơ 1) of the planet as the small parameter of the first order, and retaining terms up to ơ⁴
