Deus Vitae is a cold, Earth-like world where life thrives despite harsh conditions. Vast forests grow far inland around isolated water sources, while much of the planet remains frozen. Its sulphur-rich atmosphere and intense radiation make life difficult.
Why is this a Earth Like?Your planet has a balanced composition with all CHNOPS elements, proper mass (0.8x Earth), and sits in the habitable zone at 0.11 AU.
Earth-like planets have the perfect combination of composition, temperature, mass, and magnetic field to potentially support complex life as we know it.
Classification Criteria:
✓ All CHNOPS elements present (C, H, N, O, P, S)✓ Mass: 0.8x Earth (0.5-2.0x range)✓ Temperature: 270K (250-320K range)✓ Magnetic field present✓ Distance: 0.11 AU (habitable zone)

Contributing Factors
water20
Very dry - minimal water - mostly frozen
geology90
Active geology recycles nutrients and drives carbon cycle
rotation100
Optimal rotation period - balanced day/night cycle, moderate weather, and good heat distribution
Organic Chemistry100
All CHNOPS elements present - building blocks of life
atmosphere100
Nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere - breathable and protective
temperature70
Challenging but potentially habitable temperature
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection — but the pulsar's beams bathe this orbit in hard X-rays
