TOI-2443 b
TOI-2443 b is a confirmed sub-Neptune exoplanet 78.0 ly from Earth in the constellation Cetus, discovered in 2023 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.
Standing on TOI-2443 b, you would weigh about 14% less than you do on Earth. Its orange dwarf looks 6.0× 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 246°C (475°F) it is blistering.

If your children grew up herea playful thought experiment
Gravity close to Earth's, at 0.86 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 246°C (475°F), sound would travel roughly 34% 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 246°C (475°F), far too hot for liquid water on the surface.
- Surface gravity is close to Earth's, 0.86 times, so you would move much as you do here.
- !Likely tidally locked: one hemisphere in endless day, the other in permanent night.
