{{Quotation|'''Fact Sphere'''|The Fact Sphere is not defective. Its facts are wholly accurate and very interesting.|sound=Fact core attachedfact25.wav}}

The '''Fact Sphere''' is a corrupted [[Cores#Personality Cores|personality core]] that appears in the single-player campaign of ''[[Portal 2]]''.

{{Spoiler|Fact is one of the cores retrieved by [[GLaDOS]] for [[Chell]] to attach onto [[Wheatley]], in order to initiate a core transfer procedure via corrupting his control of the [[Cores#Central Core|central core]] body.}}

The Fact Sphere speaks like a stereotypical "know-it-all", spending most of its time rapidly rattling off various facts. While a small portion of the listed facts are {{Tooltip|true|"The billionth digit of Pi is 9"}}, most of them are {{tooltip|incorrect|"In 1862, Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing the slaves. Like everything he did, Lincoln freed the slaves while sleepwalking, and later had no memory of the event"}} and downright {{tooltip|illogical|"To make a photocopier, simply photocopy a mirror"}}.

The Fact Sphere, along with all the corrupted cores, is voiced by {{W|Nolan North}}.

== Trivia ==
* {{spoiler|Fact Sphere was the only one out of three corrupted cores that managed to evade being sucked into space when [[Chell]] opened a portal to the moon.}}
* {{spoiler|In the unused audio files, Fact Sphere can be heard yelling at both the [[Space Sphere]] and [[Adventure Sphere|Rick]]. This could be used for three things: used when they are in the cage right before the boss fight begins, while on the [[Cores#Central Core|central core]] body, or both it and Rick were going to be in the ending cutscene.}}
* Fact Sphere also seems to be very vain. He calls Rick "a blowhard and a coward" and says that Space Sphere "will never get to space" (because according to him, space doesn't exist). He refers to himself as the "most handsome sphere" and that he "has many friends".

{{Quotation|The '''Space Sphere'''|Space space wanna go to space yes please space. Space space. Go to space.|sound=Space_core_babble20.wav}}

The '''Space Sphere''' is a corrupted [[Cores#Personality Cores|personality core]] of male programming who first appears in ''[[Portal 2]]''. {{Spoiler|He is the first of three cores attached to [[Wheatley]] by [[Chell]] in order to initiate a Core Transfer Procedure.}}

The Space Sphere speaks in a hyperactive manner, constantly talking about his infatuation with outer space and how he would like to one day go to space. However, a small portion of his dialogue states that he eventually gets bored of space and wants to return to Earth. {{Spoiler|His dream of going to space is fulfilled after he gets sucked through a [[portal]] that sends him and Wheatley into space.}}

The Space Sphere, along with all the corrupted cores, is voiced by {{W|Nolan North}}.
