The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is the largest telescope in space, and is equipped with high-resolution and high-sensitivity instruments, allowing it to view objects too old, distant, or faint for the Hubble Space Telescope.
- This enables investigations across many fields of astronomy and cosmology, such as observation of the first stars and the formation of the first galaxies, and atmospheric characterization of potentially habitable exoplanets.
- Despite Webb's mirror diameter being 2.7 times larger than that of the Hubble Space Telescope, it produces images of comparable resolution because it observes in the infrared spectrum, which has longer wavelengths than the Hubble's visible spectrum.
Why it is Epic
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The James Webb Space Telescope article was read about 650,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 96 and blocks with 94: each hit it takes is cut by 38 %.
