The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- This stemmed from his development of Moseley's law in X-ray spectra.
- Moseley's law advanced atomic physics, nuclear physics and quantum physics by providing the first experimental evidence in favour of Niels Bohr's theory, aside from the hydrogen atom spectrum which the Bohr theory was designed to reproduce.
- That theory refined Ernest Rutherford's and Antonius van den Broek's model, which proposed that the atom contains in its nucleus a number of positive nuclear charges that is equal to its number in the periodic table.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Henry Moseley article was read about 66,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 51: each hit it takes is cut by 20 %.
