GJ 367 c

GJ 367 c is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 30.7 ly from Earth in the constellation Vela, discovered in 2023 by La Silla Observatory.

Radial Velocity: spotted by the gravitational wobble the planet tugs in its star.

much like Earth height

Gravity close to Earth's, at about 1.2 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.

Your voice would sound much as it does on Earth.

We do not yet have a temperature for this world, and its atmosphere is unknown, so its acoustics cannot be modelled. In Earth-like air a human voice carries as you know it, and without the temperature that is as far as the physics will take us.

Recommended, with reservations
  • Surface gravity is close to Earth's, at least 1.19 times, so you would move much as you do here.

Common questions

What is the gravity on GJ 367 c?

GJ 367 c's surface gravity is at least 1.2 times Earth's, and possibly more: its mass is only a lower bound.

How much would you weigh on GJ 367 c?

Someone who weighs 150 pounds on Earth would weigh at least 179 pounds on GJ 367 c.

How far is GJ 367 c from Earth?

GJ 367 c lies about 30.7 light-years from Earth.

How long would it take to get to GJ 367 c?

At the speed of NASA's Parker Solar Probe, the fastest craft ever built, the journey would take about 47,880 years.

How long is a year on GJ 367 c?

GJ 367 c completes one orbit of its star in 12 days.
