A low-mass star that's very cool, and emits a red light.
A red dwarf is a kind of star whose mass is between 0.08 and 0.4 times that of the Sun. The energy released by nuclear fusion in a red dwarf is carried to the star's surface by the circular motion of the hot gasses inside it.
Red dwarfs are much fainter, cooler and smaller than the Sun. They are the most common type of star in the galaxy accounting for 70 percent of all stars.
A star that has a low surface temperature, 2,000 to 3,000 degrees Celsius, and a diameter about half that of the Sun.
Small, cool faint star at the lower-right end of the main sequence on the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram.
A small cool star. Approximately 100 times the mass of Jupiter. Can be very difficult to detect.
a class M star - a star that is too cool to be considered a good candidate for life-bearing worlds
a star a little cooler and smaller than the Sun
Cool, low mass star on the lower main sequence.
a low-mass, main-sequence star much smaller, cooler, and less luminous than the sun
A small star, on the order of 100 times the mass of Jupiter.
Small main sequence star.
A small cool star; approximately 100 times the mass of Jupiter, whose surface temperature is under about 4,000 K. Red dwarfs are the most common type of star.
Red Dwarf is a cult adult-orientated British sci-fi sitcom that has so far run for eight television series on BBC2 between 1988 and 1999, and has since achieved a global cult following. It was created and originally written by Grant Naylor (a so-called 'gestalt entity', in reality a collective pseudonym for the writing duo Rob Grant and Doug Naylor). The show had its origins in a recurring sketch, Dave Hollins: Space Cadet, in the mid-1980s BBC Radio 4 comedy show Son Of Cliché, also scripted by Grant and Naylor.
