PIX4572539: Brown dwarf with a large debris ring - Artist's view of a brown dwarf star surrounded by a disc of dust and rocks. In the foreground, a primitive exoplanet illuminated by the star. This imaginary high - mass brown dwarf has a larger disk than the previous renderings. The perspective is from the equator of an airless planet, orbiting the brown dwarf at a distance of about 4 million miles. This planet's orbit is very nearly aligned to the plane of the rings, hence the debris appears as a sword - like straight line / Bridgeman Images
