Abstract
We present a theory of approximate Noether symmetries, based on the co ncept of approximate infinitesimal point transformations. The theory i s applied to the first-order perturbations of the orbit equations corr esponding to Kepler's law and Hooke's law. The effect of the perturbat ions on the orbits are then discussed.
