It provides the light seen around the Moon, in a solar eclipse. It provides the light the Earth blocks out, during a lunar eclipse. Light leaks around the Earth, in a lunar eclipse. Since Earth's atmosphere absorbs and scatters blue, the light reaching the Moon is red, almost a brick red when you look at the eclipsed Moon.

Why is the sun corona visible to the unaided eye only during the solar eclipse?
The corona is (visually) a fairly bright, hazy "halo" around the sun that can be seen during totality of a solar eclipse. It is always there, but under normal circumstances, the sun is so intensely bright that the much dimmer corona cannot be seen.
