The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The planet orbits its host star at a distance of about 0.409 AU with an orbital period of roughly 112.3 days.
- It has a mass of around 2.3 and has a radius of about 1.34 times that of Earth.
- The planet was discovered by NASA's Kepler spacecraft using the transit method, in which it measures the dimming effect that a planet causes as it crosses in front of its star.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Kepler-442b article was read about 50,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 63 and blocks with 63: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
