Triton
Triton is a rocky world in our own solar system in the constellation Pisces.
Standing on Triton, you would weigh about 92% less than you do on Earth. Its yellow dwarf, like our Sun sun looks 0.03× as wide than ours, bathing the surface in warm white light. A year passes in just 165 years, and at an estimated -235°C (-391°F) it is colder than almost anywhere in the solar system.
Triton is in our own solar system. It orbits about 30.07 AU from the Sun, so sunlight reaches it in roughly 250 minutes. But a spacecraft is far slower:
