LP 791-18 c
LP 791-18 c is a temperate water-rich world orbiting a red dwarf star 86.4 ly away. A year there lasts 5 days. It was found using the transit method: it dims its star as it passes in front. Planets this size may be wrapped in thick gas; the game imagines it as a solid or water world you can walk on.
What it would be like in Worldwalk imagined
Nobody has seen the surface of LP 791-18 c. 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: 6.1 bar.
- A 70 kg explorer would feel like 81 kg.
- A jump that clears 50 cm on Earth would reach about 43 cm.
- The air is about 6 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.
