Uranus comes from Ouranos, which was a greek god, literally the Father Sky (So linked to Odin as the "All Father")
Mars is of course the god of War so obvious link to Tyr.
Mercury comes from the Greek god Hermes, who was a patron of tricksters and described as a thief, shapeshifter and more (so linked to Loki).
The conspiracy continues!
I think it's pretty clear that it was intentional.
HamStar - You're on to something, I feel. In addition to 3.14 being pi, 2.71 I recognized as e. I hadn't seen that before! Nice! 299 doesn't ring any bells. I'll go dig up a list of mathematical constants.
EDIT: I updated the first post. It's only spoileritized to keep it from being completely massive. Thanks, guy.
EDITEDIT: REVELATION! Think science, not math. 2.99 x 10^something m/s is the speed of light, I'm pretty sure. Helpful? D:
