Why is this a Earth Like?Your planet has a balanced composition with all CHNOPS elements, proper mass (4.8x Earth), and sits in the habitable zone at 0.73 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: 4.8x Earth (0.5-2.0x range)✓ Temperature: 262K (250-320K range)✓ Magnetic field present✓ Distance: 0.73 AU (habitable zone)
Habitability ScoreHabitable
Contributing Factors
water60
Water present but mostly frozen
geology90
Active geology recycles nutrients and drives carbon cycle
rotation30
Very slow rotation - severe temperature swings between eternal day and night sides
Organic Chemistry100
All CHNOPS elements present - building blocks of life (tidal pools cycle wet and dry - a boost for prebiotic chemistry)
atmosphere60
Nitrogen-oxygen atmosphere - breathable and protective (partially stripped by slow rotation)
temperature70
Challenging but potentially habitable temperature
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection

Moons
Moon 1rings1.1% - 1.5 radii
Inside the Roche limit (2.80 planet radii): torn apart into a ring system.
Moon 2stable0.0089% - 7.1 radii
Small and distant: a quiet, stable companion.
Moon 3receding0.0063% - 100.0 radii
Outside the synchronous orbit: slowly receding, like Luna (~cm per year).
Moon 4merged2.5% - 100.0 radii
Merged with an adjacent moon: too close for both to hold a stable orbit.
