Find the missing word
In the MeV energy range, it is the most sensitive gamma ray ______ in space.
Answer
observatory. In the MeV energy range, it is the most sensitive gamma ray observatory in space. From the INTEGRAL article on Wikipedia.
In which decade?
It was launched by the European Space Agency into Earth orbit in ____, and is designed to provide imaging and spectroscopy of cosmic sources.
Answer
2000s. It was launched by the European Space Agency into Earth orbit in 2002, and is designed to provide imaging and spectroscopy of cosmic sources. From the INTEGRAL article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
Antony Garrett Lisi. Antony Garrett Lisi 68 · INTEGRAL 65 · Vasile Alecsandri 62 · Agat 59 ATK in WikiCards.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was launched by the European Space Agency into Earth orbit in 2002, and is designed to provide imaging and spectroscopy of cosmic sources.
- In the MeV energy range, it is the most sensitive gamma ray observatory in space.
- It is sensitive to higher energy photons than X-ray instruments such as NuSTAR, the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, XMM-Newton, and lower than other gamma-ray instruments such Fermi and HESS.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The INTEGRAL article was read about 8,400 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 65 and blocks with 48: each hit it takes is cut by 19 %.
How to get INTEGRAL
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
