Epsilon Tauri b

[2] In July 2014, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) launched NameExoWorlds, a process for giving proper names to certain exoplanets.

In comparison, the Sun is about 4.6 billion years old[7] and has a surface temperature of 5778 K.[8] The star's apparent magnitude, or how bright it appears from Earth's perspective, is 3.53.

Epsilon Tauri b was discovered by using the High Dispersion Echelon Spectrograph at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (OAO) as part of a process to study G-type and K-type giant stars to search for exoplanets.

[2] Wobbles in the star were detected, and after analyzing the data, it was eventually concluded that there was a planetary companion with a mass 7 times that of Jupiter orbiting Epsilon Tauri every 645 days, or nearly 2 years with an eccentricity of 0.15.

The planet Amateru is mentioned by name in the science fiction book Starsong Chronicles: Exodus by American author JJ Clayborn.
