. This is the first one I have actually out and out missed. I had even checked it against a second generation DSS scan and just decided it was a non-symetrical nucleus. The estimated magnitude is about 15.7. Mike Schwartz , Director . Tenagra Observatories, Ltd. Cottage Grove, OR 97424 . Back to Bright Supernovae . Back to Supernova 1999an .

... 2000 July 13 . LP 944-20: A Failed Star Flares . ... Explanation: The tiny spot circled on the right actually represents a big astronomical discovery -- the first detected flare from a failed star. Failed stars, termed brown dwarfs in astronomers' parlance , are too low in mass to ignite nuclear hydrogen burning in their cores, yet still shine feebly as the energy from their gravitational collapse is converted to heat and light. ... How did a failed star produced such a high-energy flare ? ...

... Here is a brief outline of the current theory of the events in the early history of the solar system: . A cloud of interstellar gas and/or dust (the "solar nebula") is disturbed and collapses under its own gravity. ... The gas cools off enough for the metal, rock and (far enough from the forming star) ice to condense out into tiny particles. (i.e. some of the gas turns back into dust). ... Once the larger of these particles get big enough to have a nontrivial gravity, their growth accelerates. ...
