2MASS J15031961+2525196 (2MASS 1503+2525) is a nearby brown dwarf of spectral type T5.5,[5] located in the constellation of Boötes at approximately 20.7 light-years from Earth.[6] It was discovered in 2003 by Adam J. Burgasser et al. in wide-field search for T dwarfs using the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS).
Originally the most precise distance estimate of 2MASS 1503+2525 is a trigonometric parallax, published by Dupuy and Liu in 2012: 157.2 ± 2.2 mas, corresponding to a distance 6.36 ± 0.09 pc, or 20.7 ± 0.3 ly.[6] The parallax was further refined by Gaia mission in 2018 to 154.9208±1.1025mas. The brown dwarf 2MASS 1503+2525 lies in a local void 6.5 parsecs across, where relatively few stars and brown dwarfs are located.[7]
The 2MASS J15031961+2525196 is the spectral standard of the spectral class T5.[8]
