The lunar nodes are the two points where the Moon's orbital path crosses the ecliptic, the Sun's apparent yearly path on the celestial sphere.. A lunar node is either of the two orbital nodes of the Moon; that is, the two points at which the orbit of the Moon intersects the ecliptic.
A total lunar eclipse occurred at the Moon’s descending node of orbit on Monday, May 16, 2022, [1] with an umbral magnitude of 1.4155.

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened. A ...
