Orbiting Class L

The Delta Flyer orbiting an icy Class L planet

Class L surface

The surface of a Class L planet in the Alpha Quadrant

In the Federation standard system of planetary classification, some barely habitable planets and moons are classified as Class L. Odo and Quark crash-landed on a Class L planet after Odo was traveling with Quark to meet a Federation Grand Jury. (DS9: "The Ascent")

A Class L planet has an oxygen/argon atmosphere. (VOY: "The 37's")

An example of a Class L planet is Indri VIII. (TNG: "The Chase")

Skalaar and Jonathan Archer landed on a Class L planet to escape Kago-Darr. They later landed on it to conduct repairs to Skalaar's Tellarite shuttle. (ENT: "Bounty")

The USS Olympia crashed on a Class L planet in the Rutharian sector in 2371. (DS9: "The Sound of Her Voice")

In an alternate timeline in 2375, the USS Voyager crash-landed on a Class L planet near the border of the Alpha Quadrant. (VOY: "Timeless")

B'Elanna Torres crash landed the Delta Flyer on a Class L planet in 2376 and was stranded there for several days but Harry Kim finally showed up with the part she needed to contact USS Voyager again. This planet appeared somewhat atypical of a Class L planet as it contained at least one region of that supported lush vegetation and even a pre-warp civilization known as Kelis' species. It also produced rain and contained several landmasses and oceans or seas. Little was seen of the planet's surface, so perhaps the remainder of the planet was far less hospitable and more standard for an Class L planet. (VOY: "Muse")

In 2378, a Class L planet was found by Hierarchy members Nar and Zet as a settlement site for the crew of the USS Voyager after they confiscated their warp core. (VOY: "Renaissance Man")

Background information

According to the Star Trek: Star Charts, Class L planets are "marginal" planets. They have an age that ranges from 4-10 billion years and a diameter between 10,000 and 15,000 kilometers. Marginal planets are located within the ecosphere of a solar system. They are categorized by a rocky and barren surface with little surface water and an atmosphere of oxygen/argon with a high concentration of carbon dioxide. Native lifeforms are limited to plant life, although the majority of Class L planets are suitable for humanoid colonization.
