How far away is the star Elidani?

There is no star by that name. There is a constellation with the name Eridanus. That constellation, like any constellation, contains many stars, at different distances.---ANSWER---Just a sub note.I believe what you may be refering to in the question is the star Epsilon Erandi. At 10.5 ly away i believe it is the closest star to have confirmed extra solar planets orbiting it.


What is the distance in light years of Cenaturus constellation from earth?

A constellation is basically a general direction in space. It doesn't have a definite distance. Different stars in a constellation are at different distances. The closest star from Earth happens to be in the Centaurus constellation, at a distance of about 4.2 light-years. But please note that other stars in the same constellation are much, much farther from us.A constellation is basically a general direction in space. It doesn't have a definite distance.

How far is the constellation pegasus away from earth?

A constellation is a patch of sky. Asking how far away it is is meaningless. You could ask how far away individual stars are, but there are a lot of stars in Cygnus at many vastly different distances. Deneb, the brightest star in Cygnus, is a bit of a quandary; it's variable, making its distance difficult to measure. The generally accepted value is about 2600 light years, but the Hipparchos satellite measurement is about half that, at around 1500 light years.
