Massive rogue planet with unexplained aurora glow discovered drifting far beyond our solar system

“This object is right at the boundary between a planet and a brown dwarf, or ‘failed star’, and is giving us some surprises that can potentially help us understand magnetic processes on both stars and planets,” said Dr Melodie Kao, an astronomer at Arizona State University.
Brown dwarves are difficult objects to categorise – they are both too huge to be considered planets and not big enough to be considered stars.

Wew. 20 light years away I guess is quite a lot, not sure if this is the one the C's were talking about, but exciting nonetheless.
