Abstract
The problem of relativistic equations of motion for extended celestial bodies in the first post-Newtonian approximation is reviewed. It is argued that the problems dealing with kinematical aspects have been solved in a satisfactory way, but more work has to be done on the dynamical side. Concepts like angular velocity, moments of inertia, Tisserand axes etc. still have to be introduced in a rigorous manner at the 1PN level.
