Life Detected High Activity
Why is this a Rocky Terrestrial? Your planet is dominated by silicate (17.6%) and iron (6.7%) content, forming a rocky terrestrial body. Rocky terrestrial planets are primarily composed of silicate rocks and metals. They're the most common type of small planet in the universe.
✓ Silicon: 17.6% + Iron: 6.7% + Magnesium: 6.7% ✓ Mass: 0.9x Earth (terrestrial range)
