HD 45184 c
HD 45184 c is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 71.6 ly from Earth in the constellation Canis Major, discovered in 2019 by La Silla Observatory.
Radial Velocity: spotted by the gravitational wobble the planet tugs in its star.
Standing on HD 45184 c, you would weigh roughly about 4% more than you do on Earth. Its yellow, Sun-like star looks 9.8× 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 13 days, and at an estimated 612°C (1133°F) it is furnace-hot.

If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
Gravity close to Earth's, at about 1.0 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 612°C (1133°F), sound would travel roughly 75% 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.

- !Furnace-hot at around 612°C (1133°F), with no liquid water and no shade anywhere.
- Surface gravity is close to Earth's, at least 1.04 times, so you would move much as you do here.
- !Its star delivers about 93 times the sunlight Earth gets, a blinding, sterilizing glare.
- !Likely tidally locked: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night.
