This is a spectacular sight because the only time the Sun's corona can be seen is during a total solar eclipse. Also visible during a total solar eclipse are colorful lights from the Sun's chromosphere and solar prominences shooting out through the Sun's atmosphere.

Answer:

The sun's corona is only visible during a solar eclipse.

Step-by-step explanation:

The corona is the luminous envelope of the Sun that we usually see during solar eclipses.

It consists of plasma with approximately two million degrees Celsius. The high temperature causes a constant reaction of the atoms that compose it and that probably produces the solar wind, which is defined as a continuous flow of ionically charged particles that even influence the terrestrial climate. Particles of the solar corona can be electrons and protons in addition to subatomic particles.
