A Near Rectilinear Halo Orbit (NRHO) with an eclipse-favorable phase serves as the current baseline orbit for the Gateway mission. The baseline provides a catalog of orbit maintenance targets and serves as a reference path for other types of trajectory analysis. In this investigation, an automated multiple-shooting differential corrections strategy is developed to generate many-revolution, long-duration, ballistic baseline orbits in a higher-fidelity ephemeris force model at the eclipse-avoidant phases and at other alternative phases. Additional geometric considerations for eclipse avoidance in the NRHO are presented and utilized within a long-lead orbit maintenance-based phase shift strategy.
