The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- According to the hypothesis, during this interval, a disproportionately large number of asteroids and comets collided into the terrestrial planets and their natural satellites in the inner Solar System, including Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.
- These came from both post-accretion and planetary instability-driven populations of impactors.
- Evidence for the LHB derives from Moon rock samples of Lunar craters brought back by the Apollo program astronauts.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Late Heavy Bombardment article was read about 100,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 75 and blocks with 75: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
