Artists impression of brown dwarf star

Brown dwarf. Artists impression of what a brown dwarf " star" might look like. A brown dwarf is a hypothetical planet that is enormous but not quite big enough to self-ignite and turn into a star. Because they do not shine brown dwarfs are invisi- ble, and hence there is no direct evidence that they exist. In spite of this many astronomers believe that there are millions of brown dwarfs throughout Space, and that this accounts for some of the missing " dark matter" that is thought to make up 90% of the Universe

Brown Brown Dwarf Cosmology Dark Matter Peculiar Star Star Death Stellar Macho


EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an artist's impression of a brown dwarf star, offering us a glimpse into the enigmatic world of these peculiar celestial objects. Brown dwarfs are massive yet fall just short of reaching the critical mass required for self-ignition and stellar transformation. As a result, they remain invisible to our eyes, lacking the ability to emit light like their luminous counterparts. Despite their elusive nature, astronomers speculate that millions of these hidden giants populate the vast expanse of space. In fact, some believe that brown dwarfs may account for part of the mysterious "dark matter" that is believed to constitute a staggering 90% of our universe. The artwork beautifully captures the essence and mystique surrounding these elusive entities. Its intricate details depict swirling clouds and atmospheric phenomena characteristic of brown dwarfs, allowing us to envision what lies beyond our visual perception. Through this thought-provoking image, we are reminded once again that there is so much more to discover in our cosmos than meets the eye. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and scientific exploration as we strive to unravel the secrets hidden within dark matter and uncover new insights into stellar evolution. This remarkable piece from Science Photo Library not only celebrates artistry but also invites contemplation on cosmic wonders that continue to inspire awe in both scientists and stargazers alike.
