Abstract: In this paper we investigate the zeros of the Eisenstein series $ E_2$. In particular, we prove that $ E_2$ has infinitely many $ \operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-inequivalent zeros in the upper half-plane $ \mathfrak{H}$, yet none in the standard fundamental $ \mathfrak{F}$. Furthermore, we go on to investigate other fundamental regions in the upper half-plane $ \mathfrak{H}$ for which there do or do not exist zeros of $ E_2$. We establish infinitely many such regions containing a zero of $ E_2$ and infinitely many which do not.
