Computer Simulation of the Solar Neighborhood out to 30 Light Years. The Sun is labeled and surrounded by a white circle in the center of this image. Very few bright stars like the Sun are seen. All the known brown dwarfs are circled; those found earlier are circled in blue, the ones found recently with the WISE infrared telescope are circled in red. The very common M type stars are made to look bright in this image so they can be visible.
