Strange New Worlds

VB 10
Van Biesbroeck's Star

(And then a more detailed Wikipedia page)

I found this fascinating and exciting, in so many ways.

A “cold” Jupiter in a “quiet”* orbit. (*My term, and not very scientific, intended to mean like our system)

A tiny Sun, whose temperate zone must be very narrow indeed, but how narrow?

What type of worlds might inhabit that zone?
