Getting past the second emancipation grid7 hints left
The ground is significantly less friendly to portals in this room.

What do I do?

There's a tiny side-room in the corner. It might be useful.

Hmm...

It's got a portal-friendly pit and lets you peek into the 'main' room. The latter could be useful!

Useful how?

Two panels near the ceiling are slightly protruding. Like the first room, you need a portal in the pit to boost your momentum, and portal on the panels to fly out of.

Not enough!

The pit just isn't deep enough. Are there any other portal-friendly surfaces you can use?

Hmm...

There's some portal-friendly flooring near the emancipation grid. It even has a checkerboard pattern to encourage you to use it.

Help me out.

Use the pit to get some momentum, then shoot another portal onto the floor before you land to build up even more speed.

What's next?

Repeat the trick (falling, then shooting a portal on the ground before you land) in the section you landed in to reach the chamber's next puzzle.
