WISE 1828+2650 (full designation is WISEPA J182831.08+265037.8) is a brown dwarf, located in south-west corner of constellation Template:Constel. It is one of six Y-type brown dwarfs (along with WISE 0410+1502, WISE 1405+5534, WISE 1541-2250, WISE 1738+2732 and WISE 2056+1459) among 106 brown dwarfs (counting components of two binary systems[4]), discovered in 2011 by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer. With temperature below 300 K[3], it is currently the coolest known brown dwarf. Also it has the latest known spectral class (≥Y2,[2] initially was estimated as >Y0[3]), and is identified as the "archetypal member" of the Y spectral class.[3] (Although in 2012 was discovered 8 more Y-type brown dwarf, WISE 1828+2650 remains to be the object with latest spectral class[2]).

Distance

Initially (in 2011) photometric distance estimate of this object was <9.4 pc (<30.7 ly).[1] In 2012 was published its trigonometric parallax: 0.122 ± 0.013 arcsecond, corresponding to a distance 8.2+1.0
−0.8
pc, or 26.7+3.2
−2.6
ly.[5][2]
