After they convert Thor to go with them , Thor tells them he can transport them to Earth with Mjolnir , saying they do n’t need to practice the ship the two tellurian work up specifically for this mission . When Thor said this , Stark sardonically asked Richards , “ Do you cogitate he knows the ship he ’s spill the beans about is a bleeding - edge prototype that can voyage both literal and imaginary space ? ” .
