The MSG Sphere in Las Vegas has taken over the internet. It’s the world’s biggest sphere and with more than a million individual LED panels, it contains the world’s largest screen too.
It looks like something that crash landed out of the future. But we can assure you it is very, very real… and not only that, there may be another one joining it shortly too.
Not content with just one giant sphere, Madison Square Garden wants to build a second one… in London.
Only, London isn’t Vegas. The mega orb is proposed to be built close to residential areas and be lit up from 6am to 11pm every single day.
Not surprisingly the project has proved controversial with numerous protest groups lobbying against its construction, but it looks like it could be going ahead.
Yeh, I live fairly close to this - though not close enough to be directly affected. “Proved controversial” is definitely correct.
