"We are getting closer to unlocking the secrets of how stars and planets formed in the harsh conditions of the early universe." At this point, astronomers are used to the James Webb Space ...

The nearby star Gliese 229 harbours a ‘brown dwarf’ companion: an object less massive than a star but more massive than a planet. High-resolution observations reveal that it is two objects ...

The James Webb Space Telescope may have found dozens of elusive brown dwarfs — strange objects larger than planets but smaller than stars — beyond the Milky Way for the first time ever.

2024 — A 2020 microlensing event was caused by a planetary system with an Earth-like planet and brown dwarf. The star type was uncertain. The team has determined that the star is a white dwarf ...
