Wow!!! The 14 Jupiter mass object is at the lower range of what is considered a brown dwarf.

I’ve read Jupiter mass objects considered as failed stars. Right on the edge of the critical tipping point but just never got there.

Almost all the hard material that we can stand on is derivative of a dead star exploding somewhere in the past. The carbon we are made of, for example, was formed in the nuclear furnace of helium fusing in a dying star.

Good to know that there’s a back-up plan for when BLM and Jihadists, aided and abetted by Democrats, make life on Earth uninhabitable! ;)

Hard for me to contemplate things such as this when western civilization hangs in the balance.
