A brown dwarf will cool and fade over time, eventually becoming a cold, dark object known as a black dwarf. It will cease nuclear fusion in its core and no longer emit light or heat. This process will take billions of years to complete.

What is the fate of an isolated brown dwarf?

The fate of an isolated brown dwarf depends on its mass. If the brown dwarf is below a certain threshold (about 13 times the mass of Jupiter), it will cool and fade over time, eventually becoming a cold, dark object called a "rogue planet." If the brown dwarf is more massive, it may undergo fusion reactions and become a star, though this is rare for isolated brown dwarfs.

Is a brown dwarf star on its way to becoming a black dwarf?

Are brown dwarf stars young or old?
