Why is this a Desert World?Your planet has an unusual composition that doesn't fit standard classifications, or lacks the elements needed for complex geological processes.
Barren worlds can form from uncommon element combinations or may be remnants of larger bodies that lost their atmospheres and volatile materials.

Contributing Factors
water0
No water - the recipe has no hydrogen and oxygen to form it
geology90
Active geology recycles nutrients and drives carbon cycle
rotation100
Optimal rotation period - balanced day/night cycle, moderate weather, and good heat distribution
Organic Chemistry20
Limited organic chemistry potential
atmosphere70
Nitrogen atmosphere provides protection but not breathable
temperature70
Challenging but potentially habitable temperature
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection
