Confirmation of the successful orbit was delayed by several days due to solar conjunction at Jupiter, which affected communications during the days prior to and after the flyby. *Rare white dwarf-brown dwarf binary studied Astronomers have studied a rare White Dwarf – Brown Dwarf binary star system which has shown them how some stars can be demoted into white dwarfs by their companion star’s feeding frenzy.
