Abstract: The numerical integration of the equations of the Solar system small bodies motion is carried out with application of osculating elements of the larger planets. This method proves to be highly efficient for small bodies that do not approach close to the Earth.

Keywords: numerical integration, differential equation of motion, method of the osculation elements.
