This Planet Is Orbiting a Brown Dwarf

Brown dwarfs are failed stars. They do not have enough mass to fuse hydrogen like normal, fully functioning stars. These objects fuse the isotope of hydrogen known as deuterium, which gives off some energy but not nearly as much as a regular star. Planets orbiting these objects are painted with their beautiful light and glow in beautiful shades of red and orange. Usually, they are very cold because brown dwarfs do not produce enough energy to keep them warm.

A Planet orbiting a brown dwarf is called a Moonets. Brown Dwarf should be called Starnets or gas star giants or gassy stars.

Just put the planet closer to the dwarf to heat it up (200iq moment)

Everybody gangsta until the brown dwarf becomes Y-type

I imagine lifeforms in planets like that would look very black to absorb heat and light

These are called "moons" and are objects that orbit another object that is not a star

Brown dwarves are a huge disappointment to their mums. But we want to talk about stars, not failed wannabe stars.

[BambyBoo-kx]

it is and its way tooo far too see witha telescope

[GalaxyHoshimiya]

Jupiter is a failed starvso its a brown dwarf

[MacDabs]

I believe a brown dwarf is orbiting earth right now....look at recent video on final days channel for proof
