| Description: This infrared image, taken at the European Southern Observatory, shows the two bodies 2M1207 and 2M1207b. Neither is quite large nor massive enough to be a star, and evidence suggests that 2M1207b did not form from a disk of gas and dust surrounding the larger body; hence, it is not a planet. This system is about 170 ly from the solar system in the constellation Hydra.
