GL 105C: The Coolest Star?
This false-color image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows GL 105C, a dim star in the upper right. Astronomers estimate its mass is just enough for it to fuse hydrogen into helium in its core. This makes it one of the coolest 'normal' stars known, as objects with less mass cannot sustain this fusion process.
