To find the volume of a sphere, you can use the formula:

\[
V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3
\]

where \( V \) is the volume and \( r \) is the radius of the sphere.

Given that the diameter of the sphere is 8 mm, the radius \( r \) can be calculated as:

\[
r = \frac{\text{diameter}}{2} = \frac{8 \text{ mm}}{2} = 4 \text{ mm}
\]

Now, substituting the radius into the volume formula:

\[
V = \frac{4}{3} \pi (4 \text{ mm})^3
\]

Calculating \( (4 \text{ mm})^3 \):

\[
(4 \text{ mm})^3 = 64 \text{ mm}^3
\]

Now plug this into the volume formula:

\[
V = \frac{4}{3} \pi \times 64 \text{ mm}^3
\]
\[
V = \frac{256}{3} \pi \text{ mm}^3
\]

To get a numerical value, we can approximate \( \pi \) as 3.14:

\[
V \approx \frac{256}{3} \times 3.14 \approx 268.08 \text{ mm}^3
\]

So, to summarize:

The radius of the sphere is **4 mm**. When I find the volume of the sphere, the answer is approximately **268.08 mm³** (or precisely **\(\frac{256}{3} \pi \text{ mm}^3\)**).
