NASA’s Artemis program plans to use a Near-Rectilinear Halo Orbit (NRHO) to stage assets for a lunar exploration campaign. While the proximity operations in the NRHO are simple and very similar to flat-space dynamics, the far-field ren-dezvous has considerations that are non-intuitive, especially to those that may be steeped in the dynamics of rendezvous in Keplerian orbits. This paper will discuss some key drivers to the delta-V performance of far-field rendezvous from Low Lunar Orbit to the Gateway space station in its 9:2 resonant south-ward NRHO.
