- Also known as a Binary World or Double Planet.
- Main World (MW) designation.
- Planet or world type.

These worlds are often located in a circumbinary orbit. Different astrographers have been known to use a variety of terminology for these worlds.
The two worlds have a similar mass and orbit a barycenter located somewhere between them.
- The mainworld can be the primary world of the pair, with a large close satellite.
- The mainworld can be the satellite of a larger primary world.
Probably Planetary Orbit & Climate
No information yet available.
History & Background / Dossier
The chance of two planets of comparable size in a 1:1 relationship or close to, that also develop at similar rates is extremely rare, but it has been known to occur.
- Add Rocheworlds.
