    "Super-Earths" is a bit of a play on words because the only thing they have in common with our Earth is that there terrestrial (rocky) planets like Earth. The super-earths have gravity that would crush humans and there 4 to 5 time bigger than our Earth, as for the atmosphere on the planets i'm not sure but i'm willing to wager that humans can't survive in the planets atmosphere either.

    Sorta like super-man, but goes around kicking galactic butt. For instance when Orion tried to steal Cancers nebula, super-earth kicked its *** and demoted it from constellation to gaseous cloud.

    Source(s): I would think it pretty obvious I did not research this....at all.
