9. The Ability To Communicate With Each Other
While we will speak to one another, it is clear the preferred way of communication is often via text, phone, or some possible internet source. Especially when separated over long distances. Our new planet will not have this right off, meaning we’ll need to put a satellite into space to manage this. If we are to do this, things do not need to get in the way.
A planet with higher gravity may make it harder to put a satellite into space that won’t be sucked in. Perhaps we’ll use radio waves to communicate. If something like extreme amounts of copper is present that’ll block these waves from getting out, that isn’t cool either. This will be useful for long-term survival, so it is clearly among the big things a planet needs for human life.
