WISEPA J041022.71+150248.5

WISEPA J041022.71+150248.5 (abbreviated WISE 0410+1502) is a sub-brown dwarf[~ 1] of spectral class Y0,[1][2] located in constellation Taurus.

[6] WISE 0410+1502 was discovered in 2011 from data, collected by Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) Earth-orbiting satellite — NASA infrared-wavelength 40 cm (16 in) space telescope, which mission lasted from December 2009 to February 2011.

[7] The object's temperature estimate is 451±88 K.[5] Cushing et al. obtained a low-resolution Magellan/FIRE spectrum[4] and later they obtained a higher quality spectrum with Hubble WFC3, confirming the Y0 spectral type.

[8] The fitting of the spectrum with cloudy models produces realistic values and Leggett et al. finds a mass of about 10-15 MJ.
