'''DEN 1048−3956''' is a [[Astronomy:Brown dwarf|brown dwarf]] about 13.1 light years from [[Astronomy:Earth|Earth]] in the southern [[Astronomy:Constellation|constellation]] of [[Astronomy:Antlia|Antlia]], among the closest interstellar objects to Earth. This substellar object is very dim with an [[Astronomy:Apparent magnitude|apparent magnitude]] of about 17,<ref name=recons/> and will require a telescope with a [[Engineering:Charge-coupled device|camera]] to be seen. It was discovered in 2000 by Xavier Delfosse (Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands, now Observatoire de Grenoble) and Thierry Forveille (Canada–France–Hawaii Telescope Corporation), with the assistance of nine other astronomers.

In 2005 a powerful [[Astronomy:Flare star|flare]] from this object was detected by [[Astronomy:Radio astronomy|radio astronomy]].<ref name=Burgasser2005/>
