DMPP-1 c
DMPP-1 c is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 204 ly from Earth in the constellation Orion, discovered in 2019 by La Silla Observatory.
Radial Velocity: spotted by the gravitational wobble the planet tugs in its star.
Standing on DMPP-1 c, you would weigh roughly almost exactly what you weigh on Earth. Its yellow-white star looks 12.9× wider than ours, bathing the surface in bright white light. It is likely tidally locked, so that sun never moves in the sky: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night. A year passes in just 10 days, and at an estimated 966°C (1771°F) it is hot enough to melt rock.

If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
Gravity close to Earth's, at about 1.00 times. A child would grow up much as they would back home.
A playful thought experiment from this world’s gravity, not a prediction about any real person. No human has ever grown up off Earth, so no one truly knows; the direction (taller in low gravity, shorter and stockier in high) follows how growing bodies respond to weight.
Hear how a voice sounds herea computed acoustic demo
Your voice would sound high and thin, almost cartoonish.
Assuming Earth-like air at this world's temperature of about 966°C (1771°F), sound would travel roughly 107% faster than on Earth, so your voice would sound high and thin, almost cartoonish. The real atmosphere is unknown, so this is a best guess.

- !At about 966°C (1771°F), the daytime side glows: metals run liquid and any atmosphere is being torn away.
- Surface gravity is close to Earth's, at least 1.00 times, so you would move much as you do here.
- !Its star delivers about 220 times the sunlight Earth gets, a blinding, sterilizing glare.
- !Earth-similarity index 0.15: this world has almost nothing in common with our own.
- !Likely tidally locked: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night.

What is the gravity on DMPP-1 c?
DMPP-1 c's surface gravity is at least 1.00 times Earth's, and possibly more: its mass is only a lower bound.
How much would you weigh on DMPP-1 c?
Someone who weighs 150 pounds on Earth would weigh at least 150 pounds on DMPP-1 c.
How far is DMPP-1 c from Earth?
DMPP-1 c lies about 204 light-years from Earth.
How long would it take to get to DMPP-1 c?
At the speed of NASA's Parker Solar Probe, the fastest craft ever built, the journey would take about 318,120 years.
How hot is DMPP-1 c?
DMPP-1 c's equilibrium temperature, the balance it reaches from its star's light alone before any greenhouse warming, is about 966°C (1771°F).
How long is a year on DMPP-1 c?
DMPP-1 c completes one orbit of its star in 10 days.
