TOI-1472 c

TOI-1472 c is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 397 ly from Earth in the constellation Cassiopeia, discovered in 2025 by Multiple Observatories.

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

Standing on TOI-1472 c, you would weigh about 90% more than you do on Earth. Its orange dwarf looks 7.2× wider than ours, bathing the surface in amber-orange 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 16 days, and at an estimated 389°C (732°F) it is blistering.

If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
EARTH HEIGHT≈ 0.88xEARTH-RAISEDRAISED HERE
about 0.88x as tall as on Earth · a 5 ft 10 in adult could stand nearer 5 ft 2 in

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 389°C (732°F), sound would travel roughly 52% 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.

  • !Blistering at about 389°C (732°F), far too hot for liquid water on the surface.
  • !Noticeably heavy, 1.9 times Earth's gravity.
  • !Likely tidally locked: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night.
