The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The southern floor of Gordimer is in permanent shadow.
- S band radar data from the Arecibo Observatory collected between 1999 and 2005 indicates a radar-bright area covering the southern floor, which is probably indicative of a water ice deposit.
- Tolkien crater is northwest of Gordimer, and Chesterton is to the northeast.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Gordimer article was read about 160 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 33 and blocks with 18: each hit it takes is cut by 7 %.
