The working man's God; very popular in ancient times and is still worshiped today by many Heathens and Pagans. Whereas Odin rewards intellect, Thor rewards hard work. He is often pictured as a mighty viking with a red-beard. His father is Odin and his wife's name is Sif.
Thor sends lighting, thunder and life-giving rain. He has always been a strong protector of His folk and gives gifts freely to his friends. He has a liking for farms, fields, forests, mountains and rivers. Thor has a hearty and often times bawdy sense of humor. He likes drinking, feasting, storytelling, and good company.
His favorite weapon is His mighty hammer, Mjolnir. It strikes lighting and roars with thunder when it is used and always returns to Hid hand. In both ancient times and modern times alike those who worship Him wear a Thor's Hammer about their necks as a sign of their dedication.
We even have a day of the week named in Thor's honor, Thursday.

Thor is perhaps, one of the most friendly and easy to commuciate with Gods. He always answers prayers and doesn't make you guess weather or not he heard you. When I pray, I pray to Thor.

A swarm of stars held together by gravity, like our own Milky Way. A typical galaxy may contain a hundred billion stars like our Sun.
In the clear night sky, if you're lucky not to have much light pollution, you can still see the Milky Way, our galaxy.

1. A hammer symbol that Heathens and Asatruar wear about their necks to show their dedication to their God, Thor; much like Christians wear a cross.
Thor’s Hammer is called Mjolnir, and it is His weapon of choice which he uses to smite evil giants. It strikes lighting and roars with thunder when it is used and always returns to His hand. However, it also symbolizes regeneration, and not merely destruction and was often used at wedding to bless the bride and such.
2. On Stargate SG-1, Thor’s Hammer is a device that the Asgard set up to protect the people of Cimmeria from Goa’uld interference.

The counterpart to a black hole. In a black hole matter collapses inward to a singularity; in a white hole, matter pours out from a singularity. There are many similarities between the Big Bang and a white hole.
