The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Two research MSRs operated in the United States in the mid-20th century.
- The 1950s Aircraft Reactor Experiment was primarily motivated by the technology's compact size, while the 1960s Molten-Salt Reactor Experiment aimed to demonstrate a nuclear power plant using a thorium fuel cycle in a breeder reactor.
- Increased research into Generation IV reactor designs renewed interest in the 21st century with multiple nations starting projects.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Molten-salt reactor 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 83 and blocks with 85: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
