Which star?

These statements in the article conflict:

Lede paragraph

Essentially a linked group of short stories, it recounts the colonisation of the planet Rustum, a fictional terrestrial world orbiting Epsilon Eridani ...

§Science background

However, as a character mentions in the novel (pg. 17 of the 1972 Pyramid paperback edition), Epsilon Eridani was not the location of Rustum. Instead, Anderson chose the star e Eridani (now known as 82 Eridani) as Rustum's host star.

So which is it? If it's a change between the 1961 and 1972 editions, the article should say that, and just when the change was made.
