Kepler-350 d
Kepler-350 d is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 3,121 ly from Earth in the constellation Lyra, discovered in 2013 by Kepler.
Transit: spotted by the tiny, repeating dip in its star’s light each time the planet crosses in front of it.
Standing on Kepler-350 d, you would weigh about 90% more than you do on Earth. Its yellow-white star looks 7.0× wider than ours, bathing the surface in bright 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 26 days, and at an estimated 509°C (948°F) it is furnace-hot.

If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
Heavier than home, at 1.9 times Earth's gravity. A child would end up markedly shorter and powerfully built, about 0.88x as tall as on Earth: a 5 ft 10 in adult could stand nearer 5 ft 2 in. Bones, muscle, and heart would all grow heavier just to stand and move.
- Bones
- Thick and dense
- More weight to bear forces the skeleton to grow denser and stronger all through childhood.
- Heart
- Large and powerful
- Pushing blood upward against stronger gravity demands a bigger, harder-working heart.
- Movement
- Low and deliberate
- A fall under this gravity lands hard, so movement stays slow, planted, and careful.
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 509°C (948°F), sound would travel roughly 65% 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 509°C (948°F), with no liquid water and no shade anywhere.
- !Noticeably heavy, 1.9 times Earth's gravity.
- !Its star delivers about 83 times the sunlight Earth gets, a blinding, sterilizing glare.
- !Likely tidally locked: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night.
