There actually is a secret!
The short answer is that the probability of individual planets may depend on what planet slot you are creating it in. SLot 1 planets have different chances to say slot 5... so you might find slot 1 has the LOWEST chance, but if you were to build 3-4 buffer planets you might find that slot 5 (or whatever the max planets per sector is) has the HIGHEST chance.
It's really late here and I can't even think how to articulate the answer so I'll just point you to a excellent guide. Pretty much read everything on this website
