Epsilon Aurigae, also known as Almaaz, is an eclipsing binary star system consisting of an F-type supergiant and a star of unknown spectra (possibly a small B-type main-sequence star) about 2,037 light-years away in the constellation Auriga. The companion star cannot be seen directly in visible light as it is surrounded by a very dense protoplanetary disk about 3.8 AU wide
