Image showing the constellationCrater as a bowl, with ε marking the rim
Epsilon Crateris (ε Crateris) is a solitary[12]star in the southernconstellation ofCrater. Visible to the naked eye, it has anapparent visual magnitude of 4.84.[2] It is located in the sky aboveBeta Crateris, and slightly to the left, or east, marking the lower right edge of the rim of the bowl and is somewhat closer toTheta Crateris, which is further east at the top of the bowl. With an annualparallax shift of 8.67[1]mas as seen from the Earth, its estimated distance is around 376 light years from theSun.
