As for how old Thor and Loki are when the Norse encounter the Asgardians, it’s presumably possible that the battle between Odin and the Frost Giants took place early enough that Loki and Thor could grow up and establish their own viking legends before the collapse of the Viking Age circa the 1066ish.

Finally, my pet theory is that Mjolnir, as seen in the film, is actually a super-dense, self-propelled, semi-sentient supercomputer. That controls the weather, somehow. I dunno, it looks like magic to me!

But I think we should separate technology of a civilization from its culture. The warrior ideal clearly plays a great part in Asgardian culture (as it did for the Norse), and we don’t know much about their politics (beyond the fact that they have a king *figure* – he might not be a king in the same political sense that kings were in Earth’s history – after all, the UK for example still has a monarchy). It’s plausible to me that a highly advanced civilization might want to hold onto some aspects of its early identity, and maintain a certain physicality to its technology. It’s either that, or a likely retreat into virtual reality and complete cultural and physical introversion (a danger humanity will also face some day).

Also, when your technology is so much more advanced that that of any of your competitors, you get wiggle room to allow aesthetics, not just pure practicality, to influence your design.

The Brainetics Scam: Fact Or Fiction.Phenomonal happen whenever people want to share, usually against Sayers. Whether new products or educational experience, it does not matter, some people just find a way to make it negative.

Simple, fast ansewr to why people call it Brainetics issue of fraud is also a problem, who knows? Bryster was born with an exceptional gift to pay attention to the digital mode. Some would say that his ability to solve their own head of the mathematical problem is some weird. He also succeeded in teaching his students in New Jersey and their technology transfer is very good. In the popular television news programs such as 20/20 have to show their talents and achievements of Mr. Bryster and is legal. The system is sold in Brainetics reviews talks about how the system CD-ROM for your mind, the memory system of relevant information and teaching how to promote the joy of learning.

It seems there was a planet where the king was coming under the sway of his court magician (who of course wanted the throne himself.) So Flash and Dr. Zarkoff dropped in posing as a minstrel and another magician respectively, while Dale waited in the space ship. (She wasn’t sitting and knitting; she had a role to play too.)

Flash had a lute with a recorder built in, and Dr. Zarkoff’s wand was actually a transporter-type device. Came the inevitable duel. The magician did some tricks, then Zarkoff pointed his wand and sent him off to the ship. He arrived in a chair, where Dale, waiting, tied him up with rope.

Of course the king promised to make Zarkoff his new magician. But Zarkoff explained that anyone could wield the powers he’d demonstrated: “It’s not magic, your majesty, but modern science.”

Now these episodes didn’t have the greatest production values. It was the 1950s, after all. But I remember this one fondly because of its contrasting magic and science, and because of the impressive feat Zarkoff’s transporter performed. The magician was beamed in standing up, and came out in a seated position, perfectly matched to the chair. Now that’s some science!
