Question
A brown dwarf is a kind of failed star: it's not massive enough to stably fuse hydrogen into helium, it can only fuse hydrogen into deuterium (hydrogen with a proton AND neutron in the nucleus, aka as "heavy hydrogen"). Thinking about how mass is represented along the main sequence on the H- R diagram, where would a brown dwarf be located? below and to the right of the lowest part of the main sequence O O O O upper right above and to the left of the main sequence on the lower part of the main sequence lower left
