2 of 5: Fire a blue portal into the very top of the concrete portion of the wall that's nearest the blue core's ledge.
3 of 5: Put the orange portal in the same wall at your level and take a running jump through it.
4 of 5: Hopefully, you'll land on the blue core's ledge. If not, you'll have to try again.
5 of 5: When you make it, grab the blue core and drop down to the floor.
