Greek inventor Daedalus escaped the labyrinth of Minos by carving wax wings for himself and his son, Icarus. They flew out of the labyrinth using them. Despite the warnings of his father, Icarus flew too high and his wax wings melted by the heat of sun. Daedalus was able to escape but Icarus fell to his death.
Zeus is the greek god of the heavens and air, and the king of gods. But NOT the god of winds who is Aeolus.
Icarus was Daedalus's son in Greek Mythology when Daedalus was locked in the tower with one window and a locked door. Daedalus saw birds flying around the tower and said to Icarus: "King Minos(That was the king who locked them in the tower) might control the land and sea but not the air." So he crafted two sets of bird wings from the birds' feathers that were flying around the tower and beeswax. Before they took off Daedalus said to Icarus "Don't get to close to the sun or the wax will melt and don't get to close to the sea or the wax will not stick to the feathers and the feathers will fall off." They both escaped and went overseas and King Minos couldn't do anything to stop them. While overseas Icarus got cocky and went against his father's orders and flew close to the sun and flew close to the sea. When he flew over the sea his feathers fell off and he was plunged into the sea, drowning.
In Greek mythology the Gorgons were three sisters. One of them, Medusa, was punished by having her hair turned to snakes and a gaze which turned people to stone. Gorgon Stare is a sensor used by the U.S. Air Force to have persistent Wide Area Motion Imagery surveillance over an entire city.
no but there is the god of war ares (air-eez)
There is no Greek god of gas. The closest god would be Αἰθήρ (Aether), the god of the upper air and light
Chaos, meaning "gap" or "air" in Greek, is a ancient Greek deity.
Aether means "air", or "bright/shining, upper air (blue)" (of Heaven). It refers to air of daylight.
The tales say that over millenniums of time rocks, planets, etc. crashed together creating the greek titaness Gaea. The dust shot up into the air making a male named Uranus. They populated children and named their race 'titans'. Kind of like the story in the bible 'Adam and Eve'Answer:The Greek scholar and grammarian, Apollodorus, created Greek Mythology. Though it was the Roman poet Ovid who created Roman Mythology and started off the characters that are now in Greek Mythology. (Greek and Roman Mythology are the same, but have a different telling of stories.)
The symbol of Air India is the swan. Queen Leda is the most commonly related Greek mythology character to a swan since Zeus impregnated her in such form. Aphrodite sometimes travels in a swan pulled chariot. Orpheus was also transformed into a swan after his death. Also, multiple kings in Greek mythology named Cycnus (or Cygnus which literally means swan) ended up being turned into their namesake animal.

There's more than one way to answer this: What does the name "Hera" mean in Greek: there are many possibilities, but the most likely is that it is a feminine form of the Greek name "Heros" which means "master", so "mistress". What does "Hera" represent in Greek Mythology: Hera was the personification of the Air (or atmosphere), as well as the goddess of matrons and marriage.
No. The are not "the same". The Greek goddess Chaos means invisible air and gloomy mist; the gap, the space between heaven and earth. Nun/Nu and Naunet were two of the eight Ogdoad (a set of four goddesses and four gods). The name of the water of chaos was Nun.
