Exploring a planet with a radius of 0.82 times that of Earth, located at an orbital radius of 3 AU from a star with a luminosity of 3.5, raises questions about its feasibility for human exploration. The planet's size suggests it may be more akin to an asteroid than a true planet, leading to concerns about its geological stability and potential for life. The reduced lifespan of the star limits the time available for the planet to develop life and produce oxygen, which is crucial for human habitation. Discussions indicate that while increased gravity could pose challenges for exploration teams, it is seen more as a nuisance than a significant barrier. The planet's position within the habitable zone, potentially supported by high greenhouse gas levels, suggests it could maintain a temperature conducive to life, despite initial assumptions that it might be too cold. The relationship between luminosity and distance from the star is critical, as it influences the planet's ability to support life and the conditions for human exploration.
