Maryland and Sphere Entertainment are planning a 6,000-seat “mini-Sphere” at National Harbor (Oxon Hill) featuring the Exosphere LED exterior and Sphere’s immersive tech. The roughly $200 million public-private project would create about 2,500 construction jobs and 4,750 permanent jobs, with an annual economic impact projected at over $1 billion, though approvals are still pending and a completion date hasn’t been announced.
Recent research reveals that the Moon's surface features, such as roughness and porosity, act as a protective shield against solar wind erosion, reducing material loss and reshaping our understanding of its exosphere and planetary surface interactions.
The MSG Sphere in Las Vegas will illuminate its exterior for the first time with a "dazzling" show on the Fourth of July, lighting up the Las Vegas skyline and revealing itself as a new global landmark. Standing 366 feet tall and 516 feet across, the MSG Sphere is the largest spherical structure in the world, featuring 580,000 square feet of fully-programmable LED lighting, making it the largest LED screen on Earth. The lighting of the Exosphere is set to begin at 8:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
The Moon doesn't have traditional weather like Earth, but it does experience "space weather" caused by solar wind and meteoroids that continuously alter the lunar soil and can form a minimal atmosphere or exosphere. As humans plan further lunar expeditions, understanding how space weather interacts with the Moon will be crucial. NASA experts explain that the Moon's lack of atmosphere makes it vulnerable to space weather, which can affect satellites, electronics, and communications.
