Big Red Button Sphere of Unkown

I stumbled upon a Big Red Button in a junk box that was left over from a project and while lying awake at night I spent too long transforming what could have been a simple sphere in Tinkercad into a reinforced one with a matching removable base. I had no clue, whatsoever, what it was or was going to be. All I knew was that a button needed a big sphere to match it perfectly. It might just explode the world, start beeping loudly at random times when pressed, turn off permanently and refuse to come back on, initiate a robot project that breaks free when you try and get close, or simply serve as an art object. Maybe someone even suggested that it resembled an android breast. Right now, it sits on a table taunting me with its endless possibilities. The sphere is 135mm in diameter at the base and 63mm tall. It was going to include screw holes, hence the rounded bits inside. I will add them later if needed using a drill. The base seems to fit onto it quite well without any assistance. The button measures 46mm at its widest point, 40.5mm where it fits into the sphere, and almost 70mm in total length. It's a tight squeeze into the hole, but a few drops of hot glue would do the trick perfectly. The top was printed heavily, with 3 perimeters and 40% infill to give it a solid feeling. This may be a bit excessive, as it took 15 hours to print. It doesn't require any supports.
