If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
EARTH HEIGHT≈ 0.99xEARTH-RAISEDRAISED HERE
much like Earth height

Gravity close to Earth's, at about 1.1 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 much as it does on Earth.

Assuming Earth-like air at this world's temperature of about 43°C (109°F), sound would travel roughly 5% faster than on Earth, so your voice would sound much as it does on Earth. The real atmosphere is unknown, so this is a best guess.

The journey
Cosmic travel advisory
★★★★
Recommended, with reservations
  • Surface temperatures near 43°C (109°F) fall in the range where liquid water is at least possible.
  • Surface gravity is close to Earth's, about 1.06 times, so you would move much as you do here.
