The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The project is a recognized CERN experiment.
- Its thousands of sensors are located under the Antarctic ice, distributed over a cubic kilometer.
- Similar to its predecessor, the Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector Array, IceCube consists of spherical optical sensors called digital optical modules, each with a photomultiplier tube and a single-board data acquisition computer which sends digital data to the counting house on the surface above the array.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory article was read about 44,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 83: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
