Kepler-62 f
A super-Earth in its star's habitable zone that could be covered by a global ocean. It sits where a planet could be warm enough for liquid water, in the so-called habitable zone.

What it would be like in Worldwalk imagined
Nobody has seen the surface of Kepler-62 f. The game builds it from the real numbers above: you land on a deep global ocean with rocky islands.
- Air: N₂ (nitrogen), H₂O (water vapor) · a guess. Surface pressure: 6.7 bar.
- A 70 kg explorer would feel like 126 kg.
- A jump that clears 50 cm on Earth would reach about 28 cm.
- Every step is hard work: your legs carry far more than your body weight.
- The air is about 7 times denser than at sea level on Earth: thick enough to slow a falling rock.
Pack the right suit. Choose 3 of 6 modules (cooling, heating, pressure hull, extra oxygen, radiation shield, jetpack), complete 3 surveys and get back to the lander before your oxygen runs out.

Sizes, masses, temperatures and orbits come from the NASA Exoplanet Archive (Planetary Systems Composite table). Values marked estimated are calculated from the other measurements; the surface and air are imagined for the game.
