White Paper: Gateway Destination Orbit Model: A Continuous 15 Year NRHO Reference TrajectoryThe Gateway program has selected a Near-Rectilinear Halo Orbit (NRHO) of the L2 southern family as its operational orbit. In order to facilitate mission analysis for Gateway and associated programs utilizing this orbit, a representative reference trajectory 15 years in duration has been developed. The purpose of this white paper is to review the properties of this NRHO reference trajectory.
