BASIC INFO
WISE 0855-0714 is a brown dwarf located relatively close to our solar system, approximately 7.2 light-years away in the constellation Hydra. Discovered in 2014, it gained attention for being one of the coldest known objects outside our solar system, with an estimated temperature between -48 to -13 degrees Celsius (-55 to 8 degrees Fahrenheit). This cool temperature is a result of its low mass and lack of significant internal heat production.
