Recovery from Missed Thrust During Low Thrust Insertion of NASA's Gateway into a Near Rectilinear Halo Orbit

Various strategies are assessed by which the first two elements of Gateway could recover from missed thrust events during insertion into a Near Rectilinear Halo Orbit (NRHO). Recovery strategies are assessed in terms of their ability to maintain the desired NRHO insertion epoch ad well as their cost in terms of additional time and ∆v required to reach the NRHO. Strategies utilize a 50 kW Solar Electric Propulsion (SEP) system onboard the Power and Propulsion Element (PPE). Recovery solutions are found that, in the event of a missed thrust arc during the Insertion Phase of the Gateway Lunar Transit, deliver the space-craft into the NRHO within three additional revolutions (roughly 21 days) and 80 m/s ∆v.
