Thor Agena D (McDonnell Douglas)
The Thor Agena D is a non-reusable, inactive launch vehicle manufactured by McDonnell Douglas. It undertook its inaugural launch on 06/28/1962.
Thor-Agena was a series of orbital launch vehicles. The rockets used Thor first stages and Agena second stages. They are thus cousins of the more-famous Thor-Deltas, which founded the Delta rocket family.
