The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- His work over the years spanned solid state physics, cosmic ray physics, the beginnings of modern particle physics, solar physics, the planets, infrared astronomy, and millimeter- and submillimeter-wave astronomy.
- In the latter four fields, his pioneering work opened up entirely new areas of research that subsequently developed into vigorous scientific communities.

Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Robert B. Leighton article was read about 6,600 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 59 and blocks with 27: each hit it takes is cut by 11 %.
