•
Stargazers from Asia to the Americas had their last chance for three years to see a total lunar eclipse as the Earth moved between the moon and the sun in a four-hour event on Tuesday. The moon was visible throughout North America, Asia, Australia and the Pacific on Nov. 8, 2022.
The next blood moon will not hang in the skies until 2025.
