The first thing I notice is you have #version 3.5;
I would change that to #version 3.6; for a start.

Then your Finish is
		finish {
			ambient 0.0
			specular 0.0
			roughness 0.2
		}

Which means that the colour of your sphere is only that of the light 
reflected off it.

Read the help 3.5.3 Finish
And maybe add some ambient and diffuse.

Sorry I can't actually render your scene but I'm running a long 
animation just now.
