J1745-2900 scores 115 points on Spacedle's rarity scale, which places it in the mythic tier.
That score comes from 3 science badges — Pulsar, Magnetar and Deeply embedded (high DM) — each earned for a real, measurable property of the object. Rarity on Spacedle is never random: the more remarkable an object's astrophysics, the more badges it collects, the higher it scores, and the rarer it ranks.
