The star Epsilon Eridani has a known planet that is orbiting inside a circumstellar disk of dust. Based on density changes in the disk, it has been hypothesized that a second planet is orbiting the star at a distance outside the dust. This artistic rendering shows a view from a conjectured icy moon in orbit around the second planet. The disk is shown as a a grey ring about the central star. The inner planet is not shown.
