HD 110113 b
HD 110113 b is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 347 ly from Earth in the constellation Centaurus, discovered in 2021 by Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).
Transit: spotted by the tiny, repeating dip in its star’s light each time the planet crosses in front of it.
Standing on HD 110113 b, you would weigh about 8% more than you do on Earth. Its yellow, Sun-like star looks 27.5× wider than ours, bathing the surface in warm 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 2.5 days, and at an estimated 1098°C (2008°F) it is hot enough to melt rock.

If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
Gravity close to Earth's, at 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 high and thin, almost cartoonish.
Assuming Earth-like air at this world's temperature of about 1098°C (2008°F), sound would travel roughly 118% 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 1098°C (2008°F), the daytime side glows: metals run liquid and any atmosphere is being torn away.
- Surface gravity is close to Earth's, 1.08 times, so you would move much as you do here.
- !Its star delivers about 735 times the sunlight Earth gets, a blinding, sterilizing glare.
- !Earth-similarity index 0.16: this world has almost nothing in common with our own.
- !Likely tidally locked: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night.
