Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Infobox lunar eclipse A total lunar eclipse occurred at the Moon’s ascending node of orbit on Tuesday, November 8, 2022,[1] with an umbral magnitude of 1.3607. It was a central lunar eclipse, in which part of the Moon passed through the center of the Earth's shadow. A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon's near side entirely passes into the Earth's umbral shadow. Unlike a solar eclipse, which can only be viewed from a relatively small area of the world, a lunar eclipse may be viewed from anywhere on the night side of Earth. A total lunar eclipse can last up to nearly two hours, while a total solar eclipse lasts only a few minutes at any given place, because the Moon's shadow is smaller. Occurring about 5.6 days before apogee (on November 14, 2022, at 1:40 UTC), the Moon's apparent diameter was smaller.[2]

This eclipse surpassed the previous eclipse as the longest total lunar eclipse visible from nearly all of North America since August 17, 1989, and until June 26, 2029.[3][4][5][6] A lunar occultation of Uranus happened during the eclipse.[7] It was the first total lunar eclipse on Election Day in US history.[8][9] This event was referred in media coverage as a "beaver blood moon".[10][11]

This lunar eclipse was the last of an almost tetrad, with the others being on May 26, 2021 (total); November 19, 2021 (partial); and May 16, 2022 (total).

Visibility

The eclipse was completely visible over northeast Asia and North America, seen rising over Asia and Australia and setting over eastern North America and South America.[12]

Eclipse season

Script error: No such module "Labelled list hatnote". This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two (or occasionally three) eclipse seasons occur each year, and each season lasts about 35 days and repeats just short of six months (173 days) later; thus two full eclipse seasons always occur each year. Either two or three eclipses happen each eclipse season. In the sequence below, each eclipse is separated by a fortnight.

Metonic series

The Metonic cycle repeats nearly exactly every 19 years and represents a Saros cycle plus one lunar year. Because it occurs on the same calendar date, the Earth's shadow will be in nearly the same location relative to the background stars.

Half-Saros cycle

A lunar eclipse will be preceded and followed by solar eclipses by 9 years and 5.5 days (a half saros).[14] This lunar eclipse was related to two hybrid solar eclipses of Solar Saros 143.
