00:00Imagine a star so cold, it hardly seems like a star at all.

00:04Deep in the cosmos, astronomers have discovered WISE 0855-0714,

00:11the coldest known star in the universe.

00:14Unlike our sun, this star barely emits heat,

00:17with surface temperatures dipping as low as minus 48 degrees Celsius,

00:21colder than the freezing point of water on Earth.

00:24Classified as a brown dwarf, WISE 08-0714 blurs the line between stars and planets.

00:33It's too massive to be a planet,

00:35yet too small to sustain the nuclear fusion that powers true stars.

00:40Instead, it glows faintly with leftover heat from its formation.

00:46Observing such objects helps scientists understand the diversity of celestial bodies

00:51and the boundary between stars and planets.

00:54WISE 0855-0714 reminds us that the universe is filled with surprises,

01:02challenging our definitions and expanding the possibilities of what a star can be.
