- It was delivered into Earth orbit on October 18, 1989, by Space Shuttle Atlantis on the STS-34 mission, and arrived at Jupiter on December 7, 1995, after gravity assist flybys of Venus and Earth, and became the first spacecraft to orbit Jupiter.

Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Galileo project article was read about 33,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 93 and blocks with 97: each hit it takes is cut by 39 %.
