Lunar Eclipse 2022 LIVE Updates: The lunar eclipse occurring on Tuesday, November 8, is be the last total lunar eclipse for three years. While the next total lunar eclipse will occur in March 2025, the world will continue to see partial and penumbral lunar eclipses before that. On November 8, the Moon will be a blood moon, which occurs during a total lunar eclipse. The entire Moon falls within the darkest part of Earth's shadow, called the umbra, as a result of which the Moon will appear reddish.


The lunar eclipse occurring in November this year will be visible in regions such as northern and eastern Europe, Asia, North America, much of South America, Australia, Antarctica, and over some regions of the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian and Arctic Oceans. 


What is a total lunar eclipse?


When the Sun, Earth, and Moon align in a way such that the Moon passes into the Earth's shadow, a lunar eclipse occurs. A total lunar eclipse is one in which the entire Moon falls within the darkest part of Earth's shadow, or the umbra. 


When the Moon and the Sun are on the opposite sides of Earth, and the planet casts a complete shadow over its natural satellite, a total lunar eclipse occurs. The Moon is completely obscured by the Earth’s umbra during a total lunar eclipse.


How to watch the total lunar eclipse


One does not need any special equipment to observe a lunar eclipse. However, if people want to enhance their view, they can use binoculars or a telescope. In order to get the best view of the Moon's red due during a total lunar eclipse, people should go to a dark environment away from bright lights.
