Kepler-716 c

Kepler-716 c is a hot super-Earth orbiting an orange star 2,071 ly away. A year there lasts 4 days. It was found using the transit method: it dims its star as it passes in front. Note: its mass is estimated from its size.

What it would be like in Worldwalk imagined

Nobody has seen the surface of Kepler-716 c. The game builds it from the real numbers above: you land on a molten surface of lava seas.

Air: rock vapor · a guess. Surface pressure: 0.003 bar.
A 70 kg explorer would feel like 91 kg.
A jump that clears 50 cm on Earth would reach about 38 cm.

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.
