The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The gas consists mainly of ionized hydrogen and helium and accounts for most of the baryonic material in galaxy clusters.
- The ICM is heated to temperatures on the order of 10 to 100 megakelvins, emitting strong X-ray radiation.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Intracluster medium article was read about 13,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 61 and blocks with 39: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
