   Summary Author:  Meiying Lee

   During the  total lunar eclipse of November 8, 2022, which was
    observed here in Taiwan just after nightfall, a  lunar
   occultation of Uranus was underway at the same time as the eclipse, as
   shown above. This rare celestial treat could only be seen in parts of
   Asia and North America and was only visible through binoculars or a
   telescope.
