Epsilon Indi Ab is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting the star Epsilon Indi A, about 11.9 light-years away in the constellation of Indus. The planet was confirmed to exist in 2018. [ 1 ] It orbits at around 30 AU (almost as far as Neptune from the Sun) with a period of around 180 years and a relatively high eccentricity of 0.4, and has a mass ...
Epsilon Indi, Latinized from ε Indi, is a star system located at a distance of approximately 12 light-years from Earth in the southern constellation of Indus. The star has an orange hue and is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 4.674. [ 2 ]
Epsilon Indi Ab, 12 light-years away, with its parent star Epsilon Indi A blacked out, as pictured by JWST in 2023. [1] Distribution of nearest known exoplanets as of March 2018 There are 7,408 known exoplanets , or planets outside the Solar System that orbit a star, as of January 26, 2024; only a small fraction of these are located in the ...
Below there are lists the nearest stars separated by spectral type.The scope of the list is still restricted to the main sequence spectral types: M, K, F, G, A, B and O.It may be later expanded to other types, such as S, D or C.

Epsilon Eridani b, also known as AEgir , [4] is an exoplanet approximately 10.5 light-years away orbiting the star Epsilon Eridani, in the constellation of Eridanus (the River). The planet was discovered in 2000, and as of 2024 remains the only confirmed planet in its planetary system .
ε Cygni (Latinised to Epsilon Cygni) is the system's Bayer designation.The designations of the three constituents as Epsilon Cygni A, B and C, and those of A's components - Epsilon Cygni Aa and Ab - derive from the convention used by the Washington Multiplicity Catalog (WMC) for multiple star systems, and adopted by the International Astronomical Union (IAU).
