OGLE-TR-122 is a binary stellar system containing one of the smallest main-sequence stars whose radius has been measured. It was discovered when the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) survey observed the smaller star eclipsing the larger primary. The orbital period is approximately 7.3 days. The system's primary is thought to ...
The common sunstar is commonly found on rocky bottoms, coarse sand and gravel in the bathyal, infralittoral and circalittoral zone (from low-tide line up to depths of 300 m). It seems to prefer areas of high water movement. Very small sunstars are sometimes found in rock pools. [2] Common sunstar
NGC 7027 has a rich and highly ionized spectrum caused by its hot central star. [7] The progenitor star of NGC 7027 is believed to have been about 3 to 4 times the mass of the Sun before the nebula was formed. [7] It is possible that the central white dwarf of NGC 7027 has an accretion disk that acts as a source of high temperatures. [24]
This was once the smallest known actively fusing star, when found in 2005, through 2013. It is the smallest eclipsing red dwarf, and smallest observationally measured diameter. [101] [102] [103] CoRoT-15b: 82,200 Brown dwarf [104] VB 10: 82,300 Red dwarf: It was the smallest known star from 1948 to 1981. [105] TRAPPIST-1: 82,925
And unlike the Amazon where everything is larger than life, these forests offer sanctuary to a group of smaller animals. The Kodkod is the smallest cat in the Americas , weighing only about 5 lbs.
