TIC 270471727 b

TIC 270471727 b is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 594 ly from Earth in the constellation Mensa, discovered in 2026 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.

Gravity close to Earth's, at about 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 874°C (1605°F), sound would travel roughly 100% 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
☆☆☆☆
Do not travel
  • !Furnace-hot at around 874°C (1605°F), with no liquid water and no shade anywhere.
  • Surface gravity is close to Earth's, about 1.06 times, so you would move much as you do here.
  • !Its star delivers about 284 times the sunlight Earth gets, a blinding, sterilizing glare.
  • !Earth-similarity index 0.18: this world has almost nothing in common with our own.
