Beta Eridani (β Eridani, abbreviated Beta Eri, β Eri), formally named Cursa/ˈkɜːrsə/,[14] is the second-brightest star in the constellation of Eridanus, located in the northeast end of this constellation near the shared border with Orion. The apparent visual magnitude of this star is 2.796,[2] so it can be viewed with the naked eye in dark skies. Parallax measurements yield an estimated distance of about 89 light-years (27 parsecs) from the Earth.[1]
