Dear Mike, John Tng & Doves, The infrared image from Google Sky looks different from what I saw.  But adjusting from the infrared to natural light (natural vision), it could be exactly what I saw.  I saw so many shades of gray and could not make out any surface artifacts.  The pressure I felt, the immensity of the object and the almost overwhelming feeling of power from the orb seem an adequate description of this object from your link.  My personal impression in the dream and outside the dream is that this orb is real.
 
For anyone who didn't click on the link that Mike provided, please go read his post and follow the link.

I found the information from the PDF very compelling.  Thank you.
