The first thousand and ninety-nine chapters of the failed star

The brown dwarf is called a "failed star". It cannot become a burning star due to its insufficient mass, but its mass is still much greater than Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system. Astronomers have discovered huge planet-like storms on these weird planets, which are comparable to the Great Red Spot storm on Jupiter.

As the brown dwarf will cool down over time, the gaseous iron molecules on the planet will condense into liquid iron clouds and iron rain. With further cooling, huge storms will sweep through these clouds, allowing bright infrared rays to escape into the universe.

Researching and observing low-mass stars has been one of the hotspots in the field of stars in the past decade. Brown dwarfs are the most important group of them. They are neither stars nor planets, but celestial bodies in between.

The study of brown dwarfs has given us a deeper understanding of the nature of stars and planets, and we have discovered colder L and T types that extend to the lower part of the main sequence. The number of brown dwarfs in the Milky Way is comparable to that of main sequence stars, but It is not the main component of dark matter in the universe. The formation of brown dwarfs may be different from both stars and planets. The study of their formation can provide a more thorough understanding of the formation of stars and planets.

More than a decade ago, brown dwarfs were merely theoretical objects in astronomy textbooks. At that time, it was not even known whether such objects with masses between giant planets and coldest dwarfs existed. Today, the problem we face is how to distinguish these low-mass celestial bodies.

Zhao Zhongyao watched Feifei talk about some knowledge about brown dwarfs he knew. After listening to Feifei, he knew something about this brown dwarf.

‘Dad, that said, this brown dwarf is a failed star, no wonder it wants to seek revenge from the sun! Is it because he feels that he has failed too much, so he is a little angry! Feifei watched Zhao Zhongyao joking.

After Zhao Zhongyao listened to it, he smiled and said, ‘Fei Fei, although your explanation doesn’t make much sense, it should be said to be more vivid. ’

‘Dad, then we should go there to find the twelfth amethyst gem, is it possible that we are going to find this brown dwarf star! Feifei said again.

After hearing Feifei’s words, Zhao Zhongyao took out the amethyst gem and looked at it again and said, ‘Okay, there are new hints on the amethyst gem, this time it is the miniature earth. ’

When Feifei and Tiantian heard what their father said, they both looked curious.

‘What, mini earth. Feifei felt a little curious.

‘Dad, is there a big planet exactly like the earth in this small solar system? At this moment every day, he looked at Zhao Zhongyao and said.

'may be! If we can find a planet exactly like the earth in this small solar system, then we may find the twelfth amethyst gem. Zhao Zhongyao said again.

‘Dad, what are we waiting for, hurry up and find the mini earth! Feifei was a little anxious, and wanted to hurry to find the mini-earth.

At this moment, Zhao Zhongyao looked at the mini solar system in the distance and said, ‘Don’t worry too much, we haven’t seen this small solar system clearly yet! When we observe it clearly, we won’t know where the mini-earth is. ’

After hearing what my dad said, Feifei nodded and said, ‘dad, then let’s take a closer look at what this mini solar system looks like! ’

After speaking, Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei still had Tiantian, and they began to carefully observe the small solar system in front of them. They saw that the structure of this small solar system was roughly the same as that of the large solar system. However, there are some differences.

In this small solar system, there are also some large planets. But these big planets are smaller than the eight planets in the Great Solar System. Because the distance is too far, everyone can't see the difference between these giant planets and the giant planets of the great solar system.

In addition to these large planets, there are some asteroids, which are like a barrier, protecting the central celestial body and the large planets near it.

Just now, when Zhao Zhongyao and the others were driving the spacecraft, the dense small celestial bodies they saw were some of the small celestial bodies in the outermost periphery of this small solar system.

At that time, if Zhao Zhongyao and the others rushed past those small celestial bodies, it would definitely be in danger. After all, the distance between those small celestial bodies is very small. And their flying speed is very fast, if the spacecraft passes through them rashly, it may hit these small celestial bodies.

Because Zhao Zhongyao and the others have seen it just now, these small celestial bodies often collide because they are too close. If the spacecraft enters these small celestial bodies that frequently collide, it is very likely that it will also collide with those small celestial bodies.

It is precisely because it is very dangerous to travel through these small celestial bodies that Zhao Zhongyao thought of changing the direction of the spacecraft and entering the core area of ​​this small solar system from another direction.

In this way, it is equivalent to bypassing these dense small celestial bodies. After all, these small celestial bodies, like the Kuiper Belt in the Great Solar System, are in a relatively concentrated plane. As long as you can bypass this plane, you can directly enter the core area of ​​the small solar system.

‘Dad, this small solar system is similar to our large solar system, does it have eight planets too! We can now go to the core of this little solar system to find a mini earth! Feifei looked at Zhao Zhongyao again and said.

After hearing what Feifei said, Zhao Zhongyao thought for a while and said, ‘Okay, let’s go to the core of the little solar system now and look for the little earth! ’

After finishing talking, Zhao Zhongyao drove the spacecraft again and set off toward the core area of ​​this small solar system.

Soon, the spacecraft flew to the core area of ​​this small solar system. Because this brown dwarf is an'alternative celestial body between stars and planets. "This little sun is actually very different from the big sun. If nothing else, the temperature is quite different.

The surface temperature of this brown dwarf is only two thousand degrees, while the surface temperature of the sun is six thousand degrees. Also, there is a denser atmosphere around the brown dwarf. These atmospheres will also greatly weaken the radiation temperature of brown dwarfs, making it difficult for humans to find brown dwarfs when observing.

The spacecraft stopped millions of kilometers from the brown dwarf. Observing this brown dwarf from this distance, it feels very similar to the big sun. If you don't know that this is a brown dwarf, you will still think that this is a big sun.
