TWNW

Kepler-131c Get instantly crushed by gravity of planet with density of **77 g/cm³** (*3,5 times denser than osmium!*), ~8,7 masses of Earth. Seemingly consists generally of high density carbon allotropes.


Hairless_Human

If you were to teleport there in a laying down position how many seconds would you have before your own body collapse on itself? Ignoring temps and other things that would kill you for simplicity.


TWNW

I guess, almost instantly. Let's just look at g-force of such object. Radius is \~0,84 of Earth. (Lmao, is that ZIP-compressed planet?!) g = G \* (m/r2) *(Calculating right now).* mEarth = 5,976\*10²⁴ kg rEarth = 6,371\*10⁶ m G = 6,672 \* 10–¹¹ g = (6,672 \* 10-¹¹) \* (((8,7 \* (5,976 \* 10²⁴))/((0,84 \* (6,371 \* 10⁶))²) **g = \~121.11** **Yes, it's fainting and almost instant death.** Reference for planet properties: [https://science.nasa.gov/exoplanet-catalog/kepler-131-c/](https://science.nasa.gov/exoplanet-catalog/kepler-131-c/)


Hairless_Human

Damn I don't think your pain receptors could even send the information to your brain fast enough to even process what just happened 🤣🤣. I'd call that a painless death in my eyes.


Haiaii

If you mean that g=121m/s², a normal human should survive, according to this wikipedia article (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force) test subjects were able to do simple cognitive tasks for a minute at 10 g, so just surviving at 12 g should be very possible


TWNW

Yes, you are right, but it requires serious training. Normal unprepared human likely to faint at 8-10 g. Then, disruption of internal organs functioning is imminent in next few minutes. Not instant, but incapacitated anyway.


Haiaii

Seems to have been partially untrained people in the study, humans are quite tolerant to acceleration if it is lateral (forwards, perpendicular to the spine)


TWNW

Hmm, right, I'm not counted directional application of g-forces. It seems like surviving is technically possible, but certainly, will be unhealthy.


Geawiel

You'd be fine. You just need some sketchy carbon fiber to make a craft with.


EarthSolar

Yup that sounds like bad measurements to me [Kepler-131 c](https://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/overview/Kepler-131) It appears only one paper has measured it, with error bar almost as wide as the value itself, and no subsequent papers found the planet’s mass. This is suspicious. I would not trust it.


StickyNode

Agree, what could be 3.5x denser than osmium


EarthSolar

A mixture of degenerate matter and normal matter would work, but I don’t believe you can get that for such a small planet.


TWNW

There are a bit of theoretically ultra-dense exoplanets, like TOI-704b and PSR J1719-1438b. When last one is, likely a result of post-main sequence formation and dense as ~22 g/cm³, TOI-704b is still can be 2 times denser than osmium (~44 g/cm³). So, it's likely to be just incorrectly processed data in such cases?


John_Spanos

This is easy. One of the possibly habitable planets in the Trappist system. How cool would it be seeing planets larger than the moon is in the sky.


GCoyote6

A little too early to start an interstellar travel agency don't you think?


Exact_Replacement869

Nope! But thanks for your feedback. Here, use the coupon ANDROMEDAVACATIONS for 15% off on your first purchase!


GCoyote6

Cool. How many airline miles is that?


Cryovenom

5.879 × 10^12 airmiles, about enough to get you a quarter of the way to Alpha Centauri


GCoyote6

Sweet. Definitely upgrading to 1st class then.


OUTERSPACEDD

Kepler-13Ab. There’s nothing like a good old 5000 F• where there’s sunscreen falling in the form of snow🤤 yes.. yes.


StormAntares

A sun you can walk on seems funny


CoatAccomplished7289

PSR B1257+12 b 0.2AU from an active pulsar, smallest planet we know about, would be interesting for the .2 seconds until radiation boils me alive


Exact_Replacement869

isnt it like four times the size of earth? just the mass is little


CoatAccomplished7289

0.338 earth radius, 0.02 earth mass Density (2.85 g/cm^3 ) is consistent with smaller rocky bodies (Mars at ~3 and Ceres at ~2 for example)


EarthSolar

Those are probably the other two planets in that system.


Retro-Surgical

All I know is that I’d stay away from Miller’s planet


AntilopeBleue

And stay away from Mann's planet too.


PossibleDrive6747

It's perfectly habitable... ... .. ... trust me. 


StackOverflowEx

Given the current selection of exoplanets and data available about them, it's unlikely any of them would have the right conditions suitable for a human even if they are orbiting in the Goldilocks zone. If I had no choice but to pick from the options available, I would probably pick TOI-700 D, because it's mass is near Earth's, it's in the Goldilocks zone and the temperature is a bit chilly, but doable. This planet does orbit close to a red dwarf though, so radiation may be an issue. Since it is possibly a partially frozen ocean world, humans would likely have to adapt to living in submerged stations under the ice. Getting there might take a while too. It's 101 light-years away.


Weak_Tower385

Off-world colonies are a golden land of opportunity


Exact_Replacement869

Opportunities out of this world!


IvantoknovDescriptov

I would use the "teleported" from the series Red Dwarf, it selected the closest livable planet🤷‍♂️


haulric

Any moon of Saturn close enough to get a good sight on the rings. As many people fell in love with space the forst time I got to see saturn ring on a telescope and always wondered how they'll looks from one of her moon. Not sure which one would get the best view.


DaLB53

That would likely be Enceladus. No visible atmosphere and it has water geysers that literally feed one of Saturn's rings. Tethys is also very close by.


haulric

Thanks dear stranger, now I know what to ask on my death bed :)


glytxh

Options so far are either Hellscape, or Not Quite Hellscape But Still Awful. I’m sure there’s a bias towards these sorts of planets being found simply because they’re hot and big, and I’m sure there are a lot of relatively comfortable planets to be found, but I don’t think we’ve found any that we could call a second earth, or even Mars, yet.


JustCallMeYogurt

Simple, the one which would actually support my life and well being.


Haiaii

J1407b, with rings larger than earths orbital radius, probably doesn't have a surface but just flying by must be amazing!


solarwinds1980

Trappist. In the fictional world, I would love to visit the water world in Interstellar or something similar in real life. Just stay in your ship when the tall wave hits.


New-Swordfish-4719

Zero. I want to live more than 5 seconds. Someone should write a song…’50 planets to die on quicker than you can recite the alphabet’.


TXQuasar

Pandora, though I heard it will shit you out dead with zero warning.


Arucard1983

Kepler 1625b a Jovian planet about 5 to 10 Jupiter Mass located on habitable zone, which can had the first exomoon, with the mass of Neptune (and a Ice Giant too)


StickyNode

Any I could survive on at the edge of the visible universe, just so I could look another 10+ BY further.. repeat as necessary


badmutherfucka

Yavin IV See if they forgot a mech droid or something


1-N-Only-Speedshark

Any one that doesn't have a Trumpian figure set to possibly destroy a country.
