HIP 41378 g

HIP 41378 g is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 347 ly from Earth in the constellation Cancer, discovered in 2025 by W. M. Keck Observatory.

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

Standing on HIP 41378 g, you would weigh about 9% more than you do on Earth. Bathing the surface in bright white light. A year passes in just 63 days, and at an estimated 332°C (629°F) it is blistering.

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 332°C (629°F), sound would travel roughly 45% 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.

The journey
Cosmic travel advisory
★★★☆☆
For seasoned travelers
  • !Blistering at about 332°C (629°F), far too hot for liquid water on the surface.
  • Surface gravity is close to Earth's, 1.09 times, so you would move much as you do here.
