In this case, we can speculate as to the properties that uru metal must have in order to account for the experimental evidence in the Thor and Avengers films. In the first Thor film, when Odin prepares to banish his wayward son to Earth, he whispers to the hammer: "whoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor. Most likely it is taking some complex biological and psychological profile that calculates the "worthiness" of whoever is trying to lift the hammer.
This is consistent with the scene in the clip where Steve Rogers Captain America is able to move the hammer albeit slightly , while Tony Stark and Jim Rhodes, using thruster-assisted Iron Man and Iron Patriot gloves, are unable to budge Mjolnir at all.
The key word in the last sentence is "net. This counter-force, referred to in physics as a Normal force as it acts perpendicular or normal to any surface is fundamentally electrostatic in nature, and is easy to take for granted except when it fails as when one puts a thousand ton object on a table that can only provide a counter force of several hundred pounds.
When Tony Stark tries to lift Mjolnir using his Iron Man glove, he exerts a large upward force, greater than its weight, and yet the hammer remains at rest. So where does the additional downward force come from? One can only conclude that a unique property of uru metal is that, under the proper stimulus, it can emit large quantities of gravitons.
When Thor asked the drone who sent him, the robot only replied by replaying an audio tape of something Tony Stark had said revealing himself as Ultron , an artificial intelligent android created by Stark with Bruce Banner 's help, designed to safeguard all of humanity. Thor battles the Ultron Sentries.

Having returned back to Avengers Tower , the now infuriated Thor grabbed Tony Stark by the throat blaming him for the mess, before being calmed down by Steve Rogers who then demanded an update on what Thor had learned. Thor noted that now he could no longer return the Scepter back to Asgard as was planned, blaming Stark for creating Ultron , noting that the entire situation could have been avoided if he had not toyed with the power of the Scepter, an object unknown to him, Stark defended his decision to create the robotic A.
Thor and the Avengers discuss Ulysses Klaue. Seeking to work out where Ultron would have gone, the Avengers soon learned that Wolfgang von Strucker had been killed by the robot and so they began researching what Strucker may have told him.

Greeting Selvig beside his car, Thor asked for his assistance for finding the " Water of Sights. Thor and Selvig arrive at the Water of Sights. Upon finding the Water of Sights with Selvig's help, Thor explained that throughout the Nine Realms there were reflections and, if he was accepted by the water gods, then he would be able to return to his dream and find the answers he needed, although Selvig warned that none of the stories involving this place ended well.
Despite all the warnings, Thor undressed and entered the pool and the water spirits allowed him to revisit his previous nightmare in more detail. Thor gets a new vision in the Water of Sights. Thor's body was taken over by the water spirits who claimed only a human sacrifice would stop Ultron and noting that the Scepter would be key. He also saw strange visions of the Infinity Stones and the birth of a new being which could help them destroy Ultron.
With all this new information, Thor flew back to the Avengers Tower to inform the rest of the team of what he had learned. As Thor was on his way back from London , the other Avengers all argued over the uploading of J. This led to a fight between the team. As this was happening, Thor arrived and cast a bolt of lightning at the machine that contained the android.

He leaped towards him, planning to attack. Thor was able to counter by tossing him out a glass window, but the being was able to stop himself in mid-air as he looked out at New York City. The being then took the time to examine himself on the reflection of the glass window while also gazing out into the city, considering what happened. Thor explains why he helped make Vision. While Thor stopped all of the Avengers from attacking it, the being apologized for its own actions and then offered his gratitude to Thor before taking a similar appearance to the God of Thunder's outfit, mainly the cape and gauntlets.

Thor speaks with Vision before the mission. As they all prepared for the incoming Battle of Sokovia , Thor took some time to speak with Vision while all of the other Avengers collected their gear and regrouped onboard the Quinjet to fly to Ultron's location at Novi Grad. During the flight, Captain America gave a speech in which he told his fellow Avengers that their priority would be to get the people of Sokovia to safety before battling all the Ultron Sentries that would be standing in their way.
Thor witnesses Ultron attacking Sokovia. Thor joined the rest of the Avengers going to Sokovia , while Captain America organized the evacuation of all of the civilians before any fighting could put them at risk, Thor assisted Bruce Banner in the rescue of Natasha Romanoff , as she had been captured by Ultron , smashing down a wall to give Banner access to the building where she was held.

Thor is beaten into submission by Ultron. Ultron proceeded to use his Gravity Manipulation capabilities to launch large stone pillars at Thor repeatedly to gain the upper hand in their battle. Vision then handed the hammer back to Thor and they briefly discussed its great balance, with Thor noting that this helped him get a better swing from the hammer.

Thor listens to Captain America 's new orders. As all the other Ultron Sentries made a hasty retreat away from the Avengers and were destroyed by War Machine and Vision, Thor stayed with the other Avengers as Captain America ordered them to make their way out once the last of the citizens had been evacuated onboard the Lifeboats , which were being sent by Nick Fury and Maria Hill from onboard the Helicarrier.
Thor joined the others in helping get the people on board the Helicarrier while the Scarlet Witch volunteered to stay behind and keep guarding the key against Ultron. With most of the Ultron Sentries destroyed, Thor returned to Captain America and observed as the final citizens of Novi Grad were loaded onto the Lifeboats ships to be taken to safety on the Helicarrier.

During this time, Thor had begun to have dreams of Asgard up in flames with the Fire Demon Surtur at the center of all the destruction, prompting the God of Thunder to travel to Muspelheim , where he had then allowed himself to be captured by Surtur in his search for an explanation for all of these horrific dreams of Asgard's destruction. Thor is chained up and brought before Surtur. Having recounted his life story to a skeleton who was sharing his cell, Thor was granted an audience with Surtur himself, as Thor was then dropped from his cell and left dangling by a chain before the lord of the Fire Demons.

While Thor questioned what had happened while he had been gone, Skurge had then explained that Heimdall was currently on a fugitive following his exile from Asgard due to him seemingly being declared a traitor, much to Thor's confusion as he knew Heimdall would never betray Asgard. Wishing to investigate what was going on, Thor then flew straight towards Asgard, much to Skurge's annoyance since he was supposed to be the one to announce Thor's arrival first.
Upon arriving at the Royal Palace of Valaskjalf , Thor notices a gigantic golden statue of Loki outside, and he then came across " Odin " as he watched a play entitled The Tragedy of Loki of Asgard loosely based on the events that took place in the Second Battle of Svartalfheim , as Loki had apparently died heroically in Thor's arms, having given his life to defeat Malekith and Kurse , presenting Loki as the savior and ignoring all his many previous villainous actions throughout Loki's life.

While they were speaking, with Thor jokingly comparing Loki's outfit to that of a witch, they noticed something was happening under their feet, which Loki insisted he had nothing to do with.

Thor then requested for Strange to reunite him with Loki, and Strange obliged by using his Sling Ring to open a portal, releasing Loki from a spell which he angrily exclaimed had caused him to fall for thirty minutes, which amused Thor.
While Thor shook hands with Strange and thanked him for all of his assistance in locating Odin, the furious Loki then prepared to attack Strange in revenge for falling through the portal for so long. Thor attempted to get his brother to relax, but Strange merely ended the confrontation by moving the still-open portal around Thor and Loki, transporting them to Norway and out of the New York Sanctum before the Loki could get anywhere even close to him. Thor and Loki soon find Odin standing alone.
Having just been sent through Doctor Strange 's portal, Thor arrived within Norway alongside Loki and soon discovered Odin as he was looking over a mountainside. Upon seeing their father, Thor immediately told Odin that they have come to take him back to Asgard.
Odin only responded with how joyful he is to be reunited with both of his two sons and stated how beautiful the landscape was. Thor and Loki are reunited back with Odin. As Thor demanded Loki lift his magic , Odin confirmed that it was not Loki's spells that had weakened him, stating that it took him a long time to break free of Loki's illusion and that Frigga would have been proud of him, shocking Loki.

While Odin considered this shocking news, Odin told Thor and Loki that he loved them both as his body dissipated into energy and was taken away by the wind. Thor bitterly blames Loki for Odin 's passing. Having witnessed the death of his father and having learned Odin's secrets regarding Hela, Thor's grief and anger caused storm clouds to gather above, as he claimed that this was Loki's fault, as it had been Loki's actions with banishing Odin to Earth without any of his Asgardian powers which had led to Odin's body dying of his long life.
While lightning came out of Thor's fingertips as his anger grew, Loki fearfully had then attempted to calm him back down. Thor and Loki meeting Hela for the first time. Before Thor caused an outburst of grief, he and Loki are stunned to see a portal from Hel appear directly in front of them.
