The globe: parameter indicates a non-terrestrial location, that is, one on a world other than Earth. Legal values include: Moon, Mars, Venus, Mercury. For example:

{{coord|0|40|26.69|N|23|28|22.69|E|globe:moon_type:landmark}}

When globe: is specified, {{coord}} does not assume a specific reference system (in contrast with Earth's WGS84). Only limited mapping is available for the Moon and Mars and none for other bodies. For celestial coordinates, use {{Sky}} instead.
