CoRoT-15 is aneclipsing binary star system about 4,500light-years (1,400parsecs) away in the constellationMonoceros, discovered by theCoRoTspace telescope in 2010. It consists of anF7V star and an orbitingbrown dwarf companion, which was one of the first transiting brown dwarfs to be discovered.[4]
