I decompiled sp_a4_finale4. It wasn't. In fact, the whole moon was rotated 180 degrees and directly under your feet. The floor you are walking is 2 units thin, and the portal is an actual hole surrounded by a particle effect.

Wheatley was pushed the other way by Solar Wind.

Duh.

Im joking, stupid

Of course. That explains it! Just to be clear, you do know what solar wind is?

Yes, I knew that, what I was mostly talking about was the turret opera and the field of wheat.

...depending on the angle that he was shot off the moon from, he could have completely missed Earth, or hit it. It's a bit difficult to tell from where the moon portal was placed.

Judging from the sparkle on the moon when you shoot the portal, I'd say that Wheatley (again, assuming he escaped the moon's gravity) that he'd be launched into a decaying orbit around earth, before re-entering the atmosphere and most likely sinking into the ocean, or smashing into bits on land.

Yeah, I get where NeXT-Gen_P0rtal is coming from. I mean Wheatley is just as hilarious as GLaDOS is and he ends up gets sucked into space for nothing. His incompetence almost destroyed the facility, but the body he was connected to made him crazier. I think Wheatley deserves at least one more game considering the all the times he helped Chell out.

The part where Portal and Half-Life "intertwine" as you put it, is the Borealis appearing in HL2 Ep.2. The dock the Borealis was in is in Portal 2 in the underground area.
Wheatley's incompetence will destroy the Combine!

Well said.

Maybe the pun wasn't obvious enough

Maybe so.... But seriously, do you know that there is actually a phenomena called solar wind, and what it is?

But how does pressure work through portals? I mean, they're completely destroying the laws of thermodynamics already. Why not other physics?

Wheatley can't be too far from Earth. I mean, his VGA was able to be launched to him pretty quickly considering the rocket only took about three seconds to get to him.

And then it hit him. And he was knocked out of orbit.

There, the Spike VGAs fixed your physics. You're welcome.

But he didn't win the VGA. Maybe they had a fake one to throw at him whether he won or not, launched beforehand?

we could not press the button because of the bombs placed near the glass panels.If you go near it,it would be KABBOOM!! . the only way to press the button is to remove the bombs.
