Why is this a Gas Giant?Your planet has 86.0% hydrogen and helium, combined with a mass of 10.1x Earth, which exceeds the gas giant threshold.
Gas giants form when massive cores capture enormous atmospheres of light gases. They typically form beyond the 'frost line' where volatiles can condense.
Classification Criteria:
✓ Hydrogen + Helium: 86.0% (>60% required)✓ Mass: 10.1x Earth (>10x required)
