Description: Eris and its moon. Surface details are fictional. The moon may be too small to be spherical. The Sun would be about magnitude -16.7 as seen from Eris during aphelion. And the not directly enlightened part of the disk would be in reality all dark, only the lighted crescent would be visible.
