Problems relating to influence of perturbations are analyzed by extension of A.Cayley's development of perturbative function in lunar theory; results are modified for incorporation into Hansen-type theory used by NASA Space Computing Center; theory is applied to orbits of Vanguard I and Explorer VI satellites, and results of computations given.
