I'm not familiar with the include. Perhaps you can explain a bit better
what you intend to do. Are you simply looking for spherical mapping on to
the box?
A sky_sphere is not an actual object with dimensions. Basically if a POVRay
determines that a ray it shoots does not hit (and terminate at) an object,
the sky_sphere is evaluated for this ray. It is just a background pigment.
