The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It has an apparent visual magnitude of 4.47, which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye.
- Based upon an annual parallax shift of 6.15 mas as seen from Earth, the system is located around 530 light years distant from the Sun.
- At that distance, the visual magnitude is diminished by an extinction factor of 0.21 due to interstellar dust.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Epsilon Normae article was read about 1,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 54 and blocks with 34: each hit it takes is cut by 14 %.
