Discussing the problem of the external gravitational potential of the rotating Earth, we have to consider the fundamental postulate of the finite speed of the propagation of gravitation. This can be done using the expressions for the gravitational aberration compared to the Liénard-Wiechert solution of the retarded potentials. The term gravitational counter-aberration or co-aberration is introduced to describe the pattern of the propagation of the gravitational signal emitted by the rotating Earth. It is proved that in the first approximation, the classic theory of the aberration of light can be applied to calculate this effect. Some effects of the gravitational aberration on the external gravity field of the rotating Earth may influence the orbit determination of the Earth artificial satellites.
