Earth and moon arranged in a discrete lattice in Nil geometry

Raymarching in Nil geometry with earth and moon spheres arranged in a lattice by a discrete subgroup of Nil isometries. The lattice structure shows how Nil can be quotiented to form compact manifolds. Multiple copies are visible, distorted by the helical geodesic structure. Controls: WASD to rotate, arrow keys to translate.
