Lunar orbit missions are of great interest to the space exploration community. This paper is focused on the research, development, and feasibility of spacecraft docking within Nearly Rectilinear Halo Orbits (NRHO). In this work, a proximity estimation algorithm is developed using the Circular Restricted Three Body Problem (CR3BP) equations of motion, which can be used to estimate the proximity between a follower spacecraft and leader spacecraft while docking in NRHOs around the Moon. Promising initial simulation results are provided and discussed. This proximity estimation algorithm is shown to to provide useful tracking estimates which can be fed to the spacecraft control system and will help ensure mission success.
