The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It was the first mission to photograph the far side of the Moon and the third Soviet space probe to be sent to the neighborhood of the Moon.
- The historic, never-before-seen views of the far side of the Moon caused excitement and interest when they were published around the world, and a tentative Atlas of the Far Side of the Moon was created from the pictures.
- These views showed mountainous terrain, very different from the near side, and only two dark, low-lying regions, which were named Mare Moscoviense and Mare Desiderii.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Luna 3 article was read about 44,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 64 and blocks with 55: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
