No testing has been done, this is just a basic analysis.
0x0000: 0D 00 = total number of entry for all planet and atmosphere type (assumption based on 0C being last entry and 0D being numerical count) will need to be changed to add more entry (obvious)
0x0002-0x0081: unknown area, speculation is that it separate the planet type and atmosphere type
0x0082: planet types section 190h = 32h length per entry (breakdown of first and second entries below) * 8 entries for planet (label 00-07)
First Planet Entry
0x0082: 12 bytes for name (possibly more, up to 28h?)
0x008E: 1Ch length, area unknown (00's, possibly name related)
0x00AA: 00 00 = label of entry (0x0140 = 03 00 gas giant, 0x0302 = 0C 00 thin oxygen)
0x00AC: 0F D3 = -11505 or if unsigned 54031 (unknown)
0x00AE: D3 59 = 22995 (unknown)
0x00B0: C8 32 = 13000 (speculate this is some kind of unit of measurement for atmosphere)
0x00B2: 28 23 = 9000 (speculation same as above)
Second Planet Entry
0x00B4: byte-length for namespace + unknown
0x00DC: 01 00 = label of entry
0x00DE: B5 C4 = -15179 or if unsigned 50357
0x00E0: 5A 59 = 22874
0x00E2: F0 55 = 22000
0x00E4: 10 27 = 10000
0x0212-end: atmosphere types section (same breakdown per entry as above) * 5 entries
First Atmosphere Entry (methane)
0x00212: byte-length for namespace + unknown
0x0023A: 08 00 = label of entry
0x0023C: B5 46 = 18101
0x0023E: CE F1 = -3634 or if unsigned 61902
0x00240: 50 46 = 18000 (**this is the same value for all atmospheres entries)
0x00242: 10 27 = 10000 (**same as above)
First Atmos (*)Values Only (comparison) methane
18101
-3634 or if unsigned 61902

Second Atmos(*) none
-19004 or if unsigned 46532

At this time, I am not sure how I will go about inserting new planet types. Seems there are a number of files such as habit.bin, planspac.bin, ppgrowth to be dealt with. Stellar was just one file, and I was able to add the new entry to the end of the file. I may or may not be able to put the new planets into the end of habit.bin file, as long as the ID matches in trek.exe? We will find out eventually.
Possible planet type suggestions:
Asteroid type (naturally)
Gas Super/Ultra giant (a variation between Ice, Hot, and Super giants, for new structures for a greater economic boost)
Anomaly type (wormhole mostly, maybe nebulae; cosmetic, nonfunctional for now, uninhabitable)
Brown dwarf star (edge of solar system, uninhabitable unless below)
Brown dwarf with orbiting planetoid (inhabitable)
I would say we could put our secondary stars here too, but I think unless you are making new buildings for star type planets, its best to just add a few more entry to stellar objects for different binary and trinary star types (we could have many options now with relocation table).
Naturally I'd like to make the planetary selection more robust. So of course any realistic and canon classification of planet available in my opinion should be added.
