In planetary terms, a corona is an oval-shaped feature upon a planet's surface.
"Corona" means "crown" in Ancient Greek.
A corona is found on the surface of planet Venus.
Additionally:
- A corona is also found on Miranda, one of the moons of Uranus
- The "corona" is also used to describe the plasma atmosphere of the sun (you should know the sun is a star, not a planet)

Uranus has one because it is a gas planet
What are pieces of rock that strike the surface of a moon or planet called?
Pieces of rock that strike the surface of a moon or planet are called meteorites.
What is a circle around a planet called?
The circle of light around the sun is called a Corona. The corona can usually only be seen during a total solar eclipse. When this happens it can be seen as an irregularly shaped glow surrounding the moon.
Which planet has a feature called the great red spot?
Jupiter
What are the feature of Jupiter?
Jupiter is a giant ball of gas and liquid with little, if any, solid surface. Instead, the planet's surface is composed of dense red, brown, yellow, and white clouds. The clouds are arranged in light-colored areas called zones and darker regions called belts that circle the planet parallel to the equator.
What is Bowl shaped on surface of planet or moon?

What is the surface on planet earth?
Its called the crust.
What is the force of gravity at the surface of the eight planets called?
The force of gravity at the surface of the eight planets is called surface gravity. It is the gravitational pull experienced by objects on the surface of a planet due to its mass.
What are geological feature?
Geologic features are any physical features on the surface of a planet or moon, or of the rocks exposed at the surface, by any geologic process.
Which is the most dominant physical feature of planet earth?
The most dominant physical feature of planet Earth is its water, which covers about 71% of the planet's surface. The oceans play a crucial role in regulating the Earth's climate and supporting various forms of life.

When magma erupts onto the planet's surface, it is called lava.
What would be the period of revolution for a hypothetical planet just above the surface of the sun at a distance from the solar center of 1 million km?
That would have the planet at a distance of 300,000 km from the surface. This would be in the corona region. No matter can exist in this area. At millions of degrees in temperature, everything is plasma in this area.
