Summary
| Description |
English: Artist's conception of the newly discovered planet MOA-2007-BLG-192L b orbiting a brown dwarf "star" with a mass of only 6 percent of that of the Sun. Theory suggests that the 3-Earth-mass planet is made primarily of rock and ice. Observational and theoretical studies of brown dwarfs reveal that they have a magenta color due to absorption by elements such as sodium and potassium in their atmospheres. If the host star has a mass of 9 percent of that of the Sun, at the other end of the margin of error for the new microlensing data, the star would be a red dwarf about 100 times brighter than the brown dwarf, but 1000 times fainter than the Sun.
Nederlands: Een simulatie afbeelding van planeet MOA-2007-BLG-192-L b die veel overeenkomsten heeft met de Aarde. De planeet draait om een zwakke bruinedwerg die tien keer zwakker is dan onze ster de Zon. De planeet is 3.000 lichtjaar verwijderd van de Aarde en draait minder dan 100 dagen om haar moeder ster. |
