With all of these codenames, even going back to Javelin, Thunder and the like, I was just curious if there might be a theme or reason for each name? Specualtion begins... Now.
Javelin- someone posted a lovely thread about relating the name Javelin to the devastating Missile. Great thought!
Niagra- name of some of the, if not the, most powerful waterfalls in the world. Good name!
Thunder- this was covered at length somewhere. Original codename, Storm, became so popular that they had to develop a cover codename.
Driftwood- dunno
Onyx- beautiful black stone. That's all I know.
Gemini- it's kind of two devices. It's new but old at the same time
Odin- Norse god. Dunno anything about him.
Magnum- I once shot a .44 Mag. The kick was unfathomable. Power. Pure power.
Pluto- Bringing a good reputation and redemption back to the name of the fallen planet.
Atlas- a god-man strong enough to hold the earth.
Jupiter- The largest planet in our solar system. The gravity on it is so powerful a human would be crushed to death just by being there. So I've heard.
Any I missed?
