Barnard's Star is a very low-mass red dwarf star.

The estimated surface temperature of the red dwarf known as Barnard's Star is "only" about 3134 K, compared to our Sun's surface temperature of about 5778 K. It radiates mostly in the infrared, and is the closest detected red dwarf to Earth, about 6 light years away.
