Anderson Mesa

1

Anderson Mesa (Navajo: Hosh Dikʼání ) is approximately five mesas long, located 20 miles southeast of Flagstaff, Arizona, United States, east of Lake Mary and north of Mormon Lake, in Coconino County. This mesa landform, with an elevation between 6200 and 7200 ft, has been the site of Lowell Observatory's Anderson Mesa Station since 1959. Because it is also very flat, it is also home to the Naval Observatory's Navy Precision Optical Interferometer, or "NPOI", since 1992. It is also the inspiration for the 1996 Jimmy Eat World song of the same title.
