How about using a solve block?

In case of your data the centre of the sphere is exactly the origin.
You can increase the precision by setting something like CTOL:=10^-8

    I greatly appreciate your time and help. I'm very happy with your help. My question would be the following : (just only changing the GreenPoint)

    Just type in the solve block and throw in the coordinates you are interested in.

      Note that the exact expression of the center is large, in full it is:

      With another set of points, you may get:

        Many, many thanks, Luc. And I still have a query about : center and radius of inscribed sphere. 

        Best Regards.
