Well that record didn't last long..
Hyades Sector LH-V c2-21 3. T-Tauri star with solar mass of 0.0078 and surface temp. of 260K.
That makes it the coldest star, the coldest non brown dwarf star, the lightest star and the lightest non brown dwarf star. 4 records!

Could you clarify the "Heaviest Body" criteria, does it include or exclude gas giants? Just asking because a couple of Class IV gas giants in THETA-1 MICROSCOPII have over 3499+ earth masses. (A8 and B14)
Sorry for being offtopic, but while we're at systems with permits - how do you gain access? I've encountered a few of these myself out there in noman's land and wondered who actually enforced the permit?
nice find zxen .. is that an S class? or what was the letter clasification?
Not sure if this qualifies for a record, but thought I'd add it as seems to be the weirdest/rarest star type. Been to about 1300 systems but never came across a Carbon Class star:

Wonder if they'll make it go supernova...![]()
Found a really old star 18,474 Million years old
With a solar mass of just 1.59 its not massive enough for a supernova. Will just end up as a white dwarf.
