Kepler-141 c
Rocky TerrestrialUninhabitable981 light years awayFound 2014
Kepler-141 c, from the NASA Exoplanet Archive (found 2014). Measured: 2.57 Earth masses, 0.067 AU, a 4910 K K-type star. Composition inferred from a measured bulk density of 0.92x Earth's, which is rock and iron, with a day locked to its 7.0-day year, as anything orbiting this close would be.

Rocky Terrestrial
High Activity
Why is this a Rocky Terrestrial?Your planet is dominated by silicate (25.0%) and iron (12.5%) content, forming a rocky terrestrial body.
Rocky terrestrial planets are primarily composed of silicate rocks and metals. They're the most common type of small planet in the universe.
Classification Criteria:
✓ Silicon: 25.0% + Iron: 12.5% + Magnesium: 3.8%✓ Mass: 2.6x Earth (terrestrial range)
Habitability ScoreUninhabitable
Contributing Factors
temperature5
Scorching - hot enough to melt lead, though rock stays solid; no chance for life
atmosphere70
Nitrogen atmosphere provides protection but not breathable
water8
Limited water content - boiling away, little would be retained
magnetic Field30
No magnetic field - vulnerable to solar radiation
geology90
Active geology recycles nutrients and drives carbon cycle
Organic Chemistry80
Core organic elements (CHNO) present
rotation30
Very slow rotation - extreme temperature swings between eternal day and night sides
