Detailed Solution

Concept: When the Earth passes between the sun and the moon, the moon is entirely obscured by the Earth's shadow, yet it often appears reddish due to the limited amount of light rays refracted from the Earth's atmosphere and falling on the moon.
The lunar eclipse is what it's called, and it normally lasts only a few hours. Lunar eclipses come in two flavors: complete and partial. When the sun and moon are on opposite sides of the Earth, a total lunar eclipse occurs. When only a portion of the Earth's shadow falls on the moon, it is called a partial eclipse.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
