VHS J1256b? I knew red dwarfs were ancient but they're still use VHS there?

It's virtually hot enough to be a star itself. I was expecting that if we ever discovered a planet orbiting a red dwarf that it would be cold outside with no kind of atmosphere.

Well, at 40 light years away, they are just now getting “The Jeffersons” and “Saturday Night Live” transmissions. So if they are using VHS, they are ahead of the curve.
