Why can the chromosphere and the corona only be seen from Earth during an eclipse?








I REALLY NEED HELP! This is due tomorrow and I didn't really understand it...thanks!


Sagot :

The corona of the Sun is most easily seen during a total solar eclipse, but can also be seen in a coronagraph. This is because of where the light of the corona comes from. The chromosphere is a thin layer of the Sun's atmosphere just above the photosphere. It is so thin, it can only be seen during an eclipse when the rest of the Sun is blocked.
