Red or Brown? A red dwarf is not the same as a Brown Dwarf. A red dwarf is formed when a star like the sun runs out of fuel. It contracts enormously under its own weight to form a Red Dwarf.

NASA HAS NOW CONFIRMED FINDING A BROWN DWARF STAR BETWEEN THE BELT OF JUPITER AND MARS. READ BETWEEN THE LINES, IT IS OUT THERE. THIS NASA DOCUMENT WAS POSTED FEB 18TH
www.nasa.gov...
So far, the mission's discoveries of previously unknown objects include an ultra-cold star or brown dwarf, 20 comets, 134 near-Earth objects (NEOs), and more than 33,000 asteroids in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter.
The Sun will eventually swell up to a red giant before contracting in on itself to the size of a red dwarf, expanding again, before exploding in a supernova.
After a long life on the main sequence, the Sun will pass through a red giant phase before gently ejecting it's outer layers, ending it's days as a faint white dwarf.

I believe you may have taken this out of context. Although upon first reading, it would suggest they found a Brown Dwarf between mars and jupiter, if that was the case, you could bet you r bottom dollar that the whole solar system would be outa wack.
The sentence I quoted refers to the missions current discoveries. I think the way it has been wrtten would allow a lot of people to make the same conclusion you made however.
There was a discovery of a brown dwarf at only 100C 75 LY away. Hot enough to make a cup of coffee. This particular one wasn't spotted using WISE. Brown Dwarf Star is as cool as they come

Now I'm gonna have to disagree with what you said. If you read it, it clearly says that the new projects information has been gathered and there is a brown dwarf star that has been found....now im not saying it is tychee or nibiru, but there has been one that they have found using WISE that was never found before. It even says that they will be letting out information this month.....about the results but they wont be giving away the real details until march 2012. If you read the Q and A it pretty much tells you its there and that it may be tychee.
IF you actually read the full article it says "Recently, WISE completed an extended mission, allowing it to finish a complete scan of the asteroid belt, and two complete scans of the more distant universe, in two infrared bands. So far, the mission's discoveries of previously unknown objects include an ultra-cold star or brown dwarf, 20 comets, 134 near-Earth objects (NEOs), and more than 33,000 asteroids in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter. "
I think you skipped over the part where it fully says WISE COMPLETED AN EXTENDED MISSION. Plus once they found out this information......WISE was put into hibernation FEB 2011edit on 27-4-2011 by Razz123 because: Had some left over info
WISE is a NASA mission, launched in December 2009, which scanned the entire celestial sky at four infrared wavelengths about 1.5 times. It captured more than 2.7 million images of objects in space, ranging from faraway galaxies to asteroids and comets relatively close to Earth. Recently, WISE completed an extended mission, allowing it to finish a complete scan of the asteroid belt, and two complete scans of the more distant universe, in two infrared bands. So far, the mission's discoveries of previously unknown objects include an ultra-cold star or brown dwarf, 20 comets, 134 near-Earth objects (NEOs), and more than 33,000 asteroids in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter.
