On November 8, 2022, a stunning total lunar eclipse—nicknamed the "beaver blood moon"—took place, making history as the first total lunar eclipse to occur on a US Election Day, with the next not expected until 2394. This central eclipse was the longest total lunar eclipse visible from nearly all of North America since 1989, and it was fully visible across northeast Asia and North America. A rare highlight was the lunar occultation of Uranus, where the Moon passed directly in front of the distant planet during the event. It also served as the finale of a near-tetrad of lunar eclipses, following totals in May 2021 and May 2022, and a partial in November 2021. Occurring just 5.6 days before apogee, the Moon appeared slightly smaller than average, yet still delivered a spectacular show for observers across the night side of Earth.
