    The contact polytope of a lattice is the convex hull of its shortest vectors. In this paper, the authors classify the facets of the contact polytope of Leech lattice up to lattice isometries. There are 1,197,362,269,604,214,277,200 many facets in 232 orbits. The classification is obtained via adjacency decomposition method.
