The Space Sphere (more commonly known as the Space Core) is a corrupted personality core of male programming who first appears in Portal 2. He is the first of three cores attached to Wheatley by Chell in order to initiate a Core Transfer Procedure.
The Space Sphere is an example of a personality core that went insane. Because of this, 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. His dream of going to space is fulfilled after he gets sucked through a portal that sends him and Wheatley into space. However, a small portion of his dialogue states that he eventually gets bored of space and wants to return to Earth. After the song "Want You Gone" at the end of the game, the Space Sphere can be seen along with Wheatley.
The Space Sphere, along with all the corrupted cores, is voiced by Nolan North.
