Summary

Description
English: Image of the epsilon Eridani system taken by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) at a wavelength of 1.3mm. The star is seen at the centre and the ring shows the main belt of the debris disc, which is located at 70 astronomical units from the star. The belt appears elliptical as it is slightly inclined from face-on. In addition to the star, two other point sources appear in the image (one coincident with the belt). These are background galaxies and not part of the epsilon Eridani system. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/Mark Booth
