Boken om Ormen Lange forteller historien om hvordan det umulige ble mulig - om en drøm som ble til virkelighet. Det er historien om realiseringen av et av norgeshistoriens største industrisatsinger gjennom en av verdens mest grensesprengende offshore gassprosjekter. Ormen Lange-feltet ble tildelt en rettighetshavergruppe under ledelse av Norsk Hydro i 1996. Så sent som ved inngangen til år 2000 - for bare 7-8 år siden - ble det ansett som helt umulig å bygge ut det enorme Ormen Lange-feltet under slike krevende forhold uten bruk av plattform. Men Hydro hadde en visjon om å flytte de teknologiske grensene. Historien om Ormen Lange er fortellingen om hvordan veien blir til mens man går, gjennom utvikling av ny teknologi som muliggjør det umulige. Prosjektet er blitt et utstillingsvindu for norsk teknologi og gjennomføringsevne gjennom samarbeid. Det samspillet som er funnet sted mellom lokale myndigheter og utbygningsoperatører har vi trolig ikke har sett maken til tidligere i norsk industrireising. Thor A. Nagell (f. 1952) har lang utdannelse innen bl.a. historie og statsvitenskap. Han har bl.a. vært journalist og redaktør i en rekke aviser. Siden 2000 har han jobbet som frilansjournalist i Molde og utenlands og skrevet for utallige aviser, fag- og bransjeblad.

This is an exploration of how the legend of Thor has been adopted, adapted and transformed through history. The myths of the Norse god Thor were preserved in the Icelandic Eddas, set down in the early Middle Ages. The bane of giants and trolls, Thor was worshipped as the last line of defence against all that threatened early Nordic society. Thor's significance persisted long after the Christian conversion and, in the mid-eighteenth century, Thor resumed a symbolic prominence among northern countries. Admired and adopted in Scandinavia and Germany, he became central to the rhetoric of national romanticism and to more belligerent assertions of nationalism. Resurrected in the latter part of the twentieth century in "Marvel Magazine", Thor was further transformed into an articulation both of an anxious male sexuality and of a parallel nervousness regarding American foreign policy. Martin Arnold explores the extraordinary regard in which Thor has been held since medieval times and considers why and how his myth has been adopted, adapted and transformed.

On December 16, 1958, a Thor intermediate-range ballistic missile became the first rocket launch from Vandenberg AFB, California. Established from the remnants of a WWII and Korean War training base named Camp Cooke, the USAF selected the location to operationally test intercontinental-range ballistic missiles over the Pacific Ocean. Over the decades, Vandenberg has seen over 1,900 launches of more than 70 varieties of rockets and missiles. This book chronicles the launches by rocket/missile, launchpad location, and payload. Many never-before-seen photographs illustrate the variety of space launch vehicles used to lift national-security satellites into orbit, as well as the operational testing of the missiles used by United States nuclear-alert forces. The launches at Vandenberg helped drive the technological innovation and deterrence that helped the US win the Cold War.
