Googling "inverse gamma function" leads to:

https://mathoverflow.net/questions/12828/inverse-gamma-function

k = the positive zero of the digamma function, approximately 1.461632
c = sqrt(2*pi)/e - Gamma(k), approximately 0.036534
L(x) = ln((x+c)/sqrt(2*pi))
W(x) = Lambert W function
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function
ApproxInvGamma(x) = L(x)/W(L(x)/e) + 1/2

There are also some code excerpts/links to compute all this stuff.

Namely: splat1 splat2 splat3 splat4 splat5 splat5 splat4 splat6 splat3

I'm guessing they're not intergalactic at all, being completely
anglocentric, and aiming for "intellect".
