You're looking at the closest exoplanet ever directly imaged from Earth.

At 11 Jupiter masses, it is quite nearly a star in its own right. Might be why it’s red...
Looks communist to me.
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.
It would be a red dwarf star starting at about 75 or 80 Jupiter masses. It is almost a brown dwarf, however, which starts at about 13 Jupiter masses. Those aren’t technically planets because they can possibly fuse deuterium at some point, and shine with a dull red glow.
The musicians here probably take issue to the “Super Jupiter” thing though...there can be only one.

Red Dwarf.
“It’s cold outside, no kind of atmosphere, I’m all alone, more or less....”
That looks like my typical image of anything when I take a photo.
