The MSG Sphere in Las Vegas lights up the skyline, but the screen looks a lot different up close.
The Sphere is made up of over one million LED lights covering the 336 ft tall, 516 ft wide dome.
But the individual lights are spaced out, and only appear as a uniform screen when viewed from further away.

The new MSG Sphere has been lighting up the Las Vegas skyline and garnering internet hype after U2 gave an opening performance at the already iconic venue. But did you know that up close, the massive screen on the outside of the Sphere doesn't look like a screen at all?
