no, Krypton had a red sun. kryptonians powers are not due to gravity, its due to being in contact with yellow sun rays.
a krypton who lives under a red sun (or no sun) like the the kryptonians did would be exactly the same as us humans in every way.
for example if superman left the earth solar system in a space ship (or flying) and was not in contact with a yellow star he would eventually revert to being human, once he depleted his energy reserves anyways.
if all kryptonians DID always have powers then they prolly would have survived the destruction of Krypton, and clark would not be "the last son" cause all the kryptonians would have just flowen away as the planet exploded.
so no, they have no powers...lol

I've been wanting to know more about Krypton and Kryptonians for some reason. I knew about it before but Im real curious about it now.
Like I found out Krypton came back as a planet thanks to Superman Prime. He resurrected Jor 'El and everyone else and Supes father told him he was "Proud of him" and he resurrected Lois, too..
Cool stuff to know right there...

The last son of Krypton version of Superman can have his powers on krypton way more powerful then on earth because Superman's muscles were actually growing and he got taller.
Re: On Krypton, can Superman perform all the powers he performs on Earth.
No because Krypton has a red sun and a red sun can take away a Kryptonian's powers.If Superman could use his powers on Krypton,then his entire race would have been able to do so too and would have been able to just fly off Krypton to another planet when Krypton was about to explode.
They're just extremely longlived because a) they've been genetically engineered to age slower and b) they have banks of clones from which they can harvest organs if someone needs healing.

A question out of context but do you think, what you've stated, can or is happeneing here on Earth? And that every human on earth can actually become the intelligent beings Kryptonians were?

The Kryptonians were intelligent, but eventually the became devoid of emotion and contact with eachother.
They didn't even have relationships - whenever a Kryptonian died, they replaced him with a baby born in vitro - without the mother and father ever having met.
Jor-El was a rebel and that's why he demanded to see Lara's holo-image. Then he summoned her to him when he found out Krypton was going to blow and told her that their baby was gonna be safe.
Supes' dad was the first Kryptonian in a thousand years to break from tradition. I have an entire mini-series from 86 called The Krypton Chronicles that shows Krypton and it's people from it's origins, right the way to it blowing up.
I'm off to watch telly now, but remind me some time and I'll scan some images from it!
