Class K planets range in age from 4 to 10 billion years. Their diameters range in size from 5,000 to 10,000 km. They are located in the ecozone region of a star's solar system. They have rocky, barren surfaces with only trace amounts of water, and thin, mostly carbon dioxide atmospheres. Lifeforms, if any, are limited to single-celled organisms and algae. Class K planets are suitable for human colonization through terraforming. (Star Trek: Star Charts)

- The transjovian subtype of this class was used for harsh planets such as Theta VIII, with average surface temperatures well below 0 °C and an atmosphere consisting of methane, nitrogen, and liquid neon. (TNG: "The Royale" ) Starfleet Transfer Regulations included provisions regarding special environmental support for class-K native personnel. (TNG-R: "The Measure Of A Man" ) Starfleet Safety Protocols banned the use of the explosive ultritium 283 in class K planetary environments. (TNG-R: "Night Terrors" )

(TNG-R: "Night Terrors" ) Since this type of planet has a solid surface unlike a Jovian planet, the "transjovian" label probably refers to its orbital location relative to the Jovians in its system.
