The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- His main achievements were the preparation of a 3,000-star catalogue, Catalogus Britannicus, and a star atlas called Atlas Coelestis, both published posthumously.
- He also made the first recorded observations of Uranus, although he mistakenly catalogued it as a star, and he laid the foundation stone for the Royal Greenwich Observatory.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The John Flamsteed article was read about 20,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 67 and blocks with 47: each hit it takes is cut by 19 %.
