Why is this a Barren?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.
Classification Criteria:
Composition doesn't match standard planet typesMass: 1.2x EarthTemperature: 193K
Habitability ScoreExtremely Harsh
28
Contributing Factors
water33
Abundant water - frozen solid, no liquid phase at this temperature
geology100
Active geology recycles nutrients and drives carbon cycle (tidal flexing sustains geologic activity)
rotation10
Near tidally locked - one hemisphere perpetually scorched, other frozen, narrow habitable twilight zone only
Organic Chemistry80
Core organic elements (CHNO) present
atmosphere28
Nitrogen atmosphere provides protection but not breathable (partially stripped by slow rotation)
temperature25
Very cold - water frozen, challenging for life (large moon stabilizes the axial tilt - steady seasons)
magnetic Field100
Magnetic field provides radiation protection (a large close moon may help stir the core dynamo (speculative))

Surface Characteristics
Barren rocky surface with unusual elemental composition
Outside the synchronous orbit: slowly receding, like Luna (~cm per year).
Tidal braking locked the planet to its moon: one face forever moonward.
Moon 2merged10% - 51.5 radii
Merged with an adjacent moon: too close for both to hold a stable orbit.
