Successful experience of applying the Chebyshev polynomials as a power “mathematical tool” for numerical integration and approximation techniques in celestial mechanics is presented. Detailed analysis of approximation function behavior inside an integration step allows to elaborate a special technique for high accuracy and rapid integration of piece-wise continuous functions, modeling the Earth's shadow effect for artificial satellite orbits. Original software is elaborated for creating the ephemeris file simultaneously with the process of numerical integration. This technique is applied for the construction of ephemerides of natural and artificial celestial bodies as well as for the compact polynomial representation of different geodynamic parameters.
