Let $P$ be the point on the parabola, $y^2 = 8x$ which is at a minimum distance from the centre $C$ of the circle, $x^2 + (y+6)^2 = 1$. Then the equation of the circle, passing through $C$ and having its centre at $P$ is: (1) $x^2 + y^2 - 4x + 8y + 12 = 0$ (2) $x^2 + y^2 - x + 4y - 12 = 0$ (3) $x^2 + y^2 - \frac{x}{4} + 2y - 24 = 0$ (4) $x^2 + y^2 - 4x + 9y + 18 = 0$
