Hunting for Brown Dwarfs: Exploring the Sun's Cool Neighbors.
The Backyard Worlds: Cool Neighbors citizen science project is calling on anyone with a phone or computer to help uncover brown dwarfs, celestial neighbors of our Sun. These objects are relatively cool compared to our Sun and are in the mass range between stars and giant planets like Jupiter. The project presents a unique opportunity to spot undiscovered brown dwarfs in our cosmic backyard and potentially uncover hundreds or even thousands more of these captivating objects.
