The corona of the Sun is not usually visible to the naked eye; even though it is fairly bright, the Sun itself is so MUCH brighter that you cannot see it. Except during a solar eclipse, when the Moon blocks the direct rays of the Sun.
But astronomers can see the Sun's corona at any time,by using an instrument called a coronagraph; this device blocks the direct rays and allows astronomers to study the corona. Think of it as an artificial eclipse maker.
