"...astronomers have now identified a tiny star with a monstrous temper. It shows evidence of much stronger flares than anything
our Sun produces. If similar stars prove to be just as stormy, then potentially habitable planets orbiting them are likely to be much less hospitable than previously thought.
The research team targeted a well-known red dwarf star located about 35 light-years from Earth in the constellation Boîtes. The object is so small and cool that it’s right on the dividing line between stars (which fuse hydrogen) and brown dwarfs (which don’t). One of the things that makes this small star remarkable is that it spins rapidly, completing a full rotation about every 2 hours. Compare that with our Sun, which takes nearly a month to spin once on its axis." AstrobiologyMagazine
--OR---maybe it isn't on the dividing line between stars & brown dwarfs but rather was designed as such for a purpose we have yet to figure out...just saying...
