A sphere in space what is it?

[Delta Don]

October 21,2011. A.M.I could see a body spherical in shape floating in space. It was made of many octahedrons and was a beautiful golden and subtle pale green color. It was emanating blues and purples with the golds. The geometric shapes appeared to be crater like with edges. Suddenly a very bright white light appeared in the far distance as if I was looking at the sun floating in space. The sphere appeared again but this time with a shadow on the upper right hand side of it cascading downward and it looked like the shadow of a hand.
