Moon's orbit is tilted about 5o to the Earth's orbit, so the shadows usually miss!

The moon becomes a blood red color during a total lunar eclipse because of how the light reflects in the atmosphere. No wonder that ancient cultures feared the appearance of the moon during a lunar eclipse.

The moon often does not totally disappear during a total lunar eclipse. Instead it can be seen as a very dark red color because of the refraction of sunlight through the Earth's atmosphere.
