An aeronautical propulsion system includes a drive shaft, a fan rotor, a fan shaft that rotationally drives the fan rotor, a speed reducer, and a lubrication device. The speed reducer reduces rotationally couples the drive shaft and the fan shaft, and drives the fan shaft at a rotation speed less than a rotation speed of the drive shaft. The speed reducer includes a sun gear, a satellite, a ring gear, and a planet-carrier that is fixed with respect to a stator of the aeronautical propulsion system. The lubrication device includes a pump including a pump rotor, and an intake duct that supplies oil to the pump and axially traverses the speed reducer. Considered in an axial direction along which the aeronautical extends, the speed reducer is located between the pump and the drive shaft.
