I noticed that the dots on the surface of the sphere are evenly spaced out close to the equator, but because there is a consistent number of dots in each ring, they are very close together when you reach the poles.
One way to get dots evenly spread out over the surface of a sphere is to use a phyllotaxis spiral pattern.
