Status is surveyed in light of previous contributions by several authors; past variance of viewpoints toward restricted and unrestricted problems is resolved conceptually and practically; correction to equilibrium orientations found from restricted problem are derived explicitly; two major classes of equilibria are governed by transcendental equation which has been given previously, but complete spectrum of its solutions for bodies of varied shape and internal rotor angular momentum is described graphically; pertinence to space vehicles.
