Carbon World
Magnetic FieldExtreme Activity
Why is this a Carbon World?Your planet's carbon (52.3%) outweighs its oxygen (0.0%), so the mineralogy flips from silicate rock to carbide - a graphite crust over a diamond mantle.
Carbon worlds form in carbon-rich disks where there isn't enough oxygen to bind it all into silicates. Instead carbon condenses directly into graphite, carbides, and - under pressure at depth - diamond. They form water-poor, so no life takes hold.
Classification Criteria:
✓ Carbon: 52.3% (>=20% required)✓ Carbon exceeds Oxygen: 52.3% > 0.0%✓ Mass: 7.4x Earth (<=8x hycean ceiling)
Habitability ScoreUninhabitable
Contributing Factors
water0
No water - the recipe has no hydrogen and oxygen to form it
geology40
Extreme volcanic activity may be hazardous
rotation100
Optimal rotation period - balanced day/night cycle, moderate weather, and good heat distribution
Organic Chemistry50
Carbon and hydrogen present - organic chemistry possible
atmosphere40
Atmosphere present but composition not ideal for life
temperature70
Challenging but potentially habitable temperature
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection — but the remnant's shock fronts flood this orbit with cosmic rays
