Artwork of a brown dwarf star
Brown dwarf. Artwork of a planet-like brown dwarf " star" on the edge of a globular cluster of stars, seen from a nearby moon. Brown dwarves may be part of dark matter, the invisible material that makes up about 90% of the universes mass. Brown dwarves are classed as MACHOs (Massive Compact Halo Objects) because they are likely to have formed on the periphery (halo) of a galaxy where material is scarce. A brown dwarf is an object which began to accumulate material like a star but which never collected enough for nuclear reactions to begin in its core. Brown dwarves are difficult to detect because, like a planet, they can only be seen by the light they reflect from nearby stars

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite artwork of a brown dwarf star, situated on the outskirts of a mesmerizing globular cluster of stars. The scene unfolds as viewed from a nearby moon, offering a unique perspective that highlights the enigmatic nature of these celestial objects. Brown dwarves, often considered potential constituents of dark matter, which constitutes approximately 90% of the universe's mass, are classified as MACHOs (Massive Compact Halo Objects). Their formation typically occurs in the scarce material-rich periphery or halo regions surrounding galaxies. Unlike their stellar counterparts, brown dwarves never amass sufficient material to initiate nuclear reactions within their cores despite starting off as star-like entities. Detecting these peculiar objects poses significant challenges since they can only be observed through the faint light they reflect from neighboring stars - much akin to planets. This intriguing artwork not only sheds light on our understanding of cosmology and stellar phenomena but also serves as a testament to human creativity and imagination. Immerse yourself in this thought-provoking piece that seamlessly merges science with artistry while exploring themes such as alien worlds, astronomy, planet formation, and missing mass in our vast universe. Courtesy of Science Photo Library, this print invites you to embark on an awe-inspiring journey into the depths of space where wonders like brown dwarves await your contemplation.
