Tantalus is a Human colony located in the Epsilon Eridani system. [1] Not much is known about the colony, except that during the Battle of Reach, Admiral Roland Freemont ordered all UNSC ships from Tantalus to aid in the defense of Reach.[2] Its name derives from a figure in Greek mythology.

Trivia

The colony is likely named after a Tantalus of Greek mythology, or the city that bore his name.
