Can you see the sun or the moon during an eclipse?

If it is a total eclipse you can't see the Sun. That's except for the very thin atmosphere called the "corona" which you don't see unless there is a total solar eclipse. With a total eclipse of the Moon, you can still see the Moon. That's because some sunlight still gets to the Moon via refraction by the Earth's atmosphere.
