More messing with our minds, and besides, "GGI" was a typo of "CGI" to begin with.

the chance's of a resonance cascade are astronomical with the use of Unobtainium in the primary and secondary reactors especially if we use it with the primary capacitors to prevent a feedback loop.

Didn't you see what happened when Aperture science tried to make a fuel line de-icer though?

But Black Mesa aren't stopping their experiment if the notice something's wrong. Apperture can make us a portal to pandora though.

They'd have to make sure that it was at the same or very similar gravitational potential or else the radiation emitted to conserve energy (which  GLaDOS hinted at as being gamma rays) might damage life either on Pandora or Earth and we wouldn't want either.

Place the portal on a big wall out in space => Problem solved! At least the 6year would much became shorter.

Still, GLADOS might have something to learn from the Na'vi about the use of Nero-toxin. Or vice-versa.
