TOI-2147 b
TOI-2147 b is a confirmed gas-giant exoplanet 920 ly from Earth in the constellation Camelopardalis, 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.
TOI-2147 b is a giant ball of gas with no solid surface to stand on; you would simply sink into ever-thicker cloud. Its yellow, Sun-like star looks 8.1× wider than ours, bathing the cloud tops in warm white light. A year passes in just 26 days, and at an estimated 547°C (1016°F) it is furnace-hot.

If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
There is no ground here to grow up on, only bottomless sky. A child could never stand, walk, or even fall to a surface, because there isn't one. Under 1.1 times Earth's gravity and pressure that only climbs the deeper you go, anything built for this world would not look human at all: picture something closer to a deep-sea creature than a person, broad and buoyant, drifting through the cloud decks with no need for legs and no floor to land on.
- Body plan
- Floating, not upright
- With no surface and no fixed up or down, a skeleton built for standing would be useless; a drifting, gas-filled body would not.
- Build
- Broad and pressure-hardened
- Pressure rises without limit toward the interior, so anything alive would have to be built like a deep-sea animal, not a land one.
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 a thin, helium-fast squeak.
There is no surface to stand on; this is the sound at the cloud tops, where the air is mostly hydrogen and helium, the lightest gases there are. Sound races through them at about 2,037 metres per second, 6 times its Earth speed, flipping a voice into a thin, cartoon-helium squeak. The temperature behind that number is this world's computed equilibrium temperature; its real atmosphere is unknown. The demo plays the shift capped at 1.8x; the real effect would be even stronger.
A real voice sample, pitch-shifted (tempo held constant) to suggest the acoustics: a playful approximation, not a precise simulation. Voice: Lingua Libre / Vealhurl, CC BY-SA 4.0.
- !Furnace-hot at around 547°C (1016°F), with no liquid water and no shade anywhere.
- !There is nowhere to land: no ground, no deck, only cloud that thickens into crushing pressure.
- !Its star delivers about 68 times the sunlight Earth gets, a blinding, sterilizing glare.
- !Earth-similarity index 0.15: this world has almost nothing in common with our own.

What is the gravity on TOI-2147 b?
TOI-2147 b is a gas giant with no solid surface to stand on. At its cloud tops, gravity pulls about 1.1 times as hard as Earth's.
How far is TOI-2147 b from Earth?
TOI-2147 b lies about 920 light-years from Earth.
How long would it take to get to TOI-2147 b?
At the speed of NASA's Parker Solar Probe, the fastest craft ever built, the journey would take about 1.4 million years.
How hot is TOI-2147 b?
TOI-2147 b's equilibrium temperature, the balance it reaches from its star's light alone before any greenhouse warming, is about 547°C (1016°F).
How long is a year on TOI-2147 b?
TOI-2147 b completes one orbit of its star in 26 days.
