 I guess I have inhuman eyes.
 
 and spheres do have sides.
 
 
  
 In the 3D world, it's called a sphere.

 By your logic, a circle would also have sides.
 
 
  
 You can't calculate the circonference of an object that has sides.
 
 Your image does not show a sphere, but a solid with multiple sides.
 
 By definition, a sphere is "a three-dimensional surface, all points of which are equidistant from a fixed point."
 
 It was probably a sphere before its amount of polygons (I'm not really familiar with computer 3D lingo) was downscaled for... I don't know, the sake of rendering the scene quicker.

 I was taught a circle had 1 side (all the way round)

 Read: Sides (PLURAL)

 btw, it's 'plaural'
   
 This is a signature. Reading this is wasting your time.
