'''CoRoT-15''' is an [[Astronomy:Eclipsing binary|eclipsing binary]] star system about {{convert|4500|ly|pc|lk=on|abbr=off}} away in the constellation [[Astronomy:Monoceros|Monoceros]], discovered by the [[Astronomy:CoRoT|CoRoT]] [[Astronomy:Space telescope|space telescope]] in 2010. It consists of an [[Astronomy:F-type main-sequence star|F7V star]] and an orbiting [[Astronomy:Brown dwarf|brown dwarf]] companion, which was one of the first transiting brown dwarfs to be discovered.<ref name="Bouchy2011"/>
