The Largest Planetary System Ever Discovered: A Star's Mysterious Distant Companion

[@Chatsworth1979]

Hmmm ... a red dwarf would (probably?) have insufficient mass to retain planets that far away from it. Wondering about this!

[@damanybrown5036]

Exact same thing I thought until I recalled thee Creator

[@StarSailor_Channel]

It's really something to think about... it took them a long time to consider that the two have links. Even though it's distant and small, the star still has more than 40 times more mass than the planet.

Could Dark Matter hold a solar system together too?

[@StarSailor_Channel]

I hadn't thought of that, it could be an explanation for the connection between two bodies so far apart, since we don't yet know how they are.

Brilliant channel my favourite universe channel should be getting 1 million plus views.

[@caracortage3270]

Definite!

[@StarSailor_Channel]

Thank you very much for the kind comment!!

[@jm131719]

Possibly a rogue brown dwarf (based on temperature) "just passing by"?

[@ARWest-bp4yb]

Fascinating, I'd never heard of this star system before!🪐👍👍

[@larryslemp9698]

Before what?

[@damanybrown5036]

Probably before anything

[@StarSailor_Channel]

Before the video, I guess.

[@StarSailor_Channel]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting!!

[@Puzzoozoo]

It could be a binary system of a red dwarf and a brown dwarf.

I wonder if this planet as exomoon?

[@StarSailor_Channel]

It hasn't, as far as we know. Thanks for watching
