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.
The light seen around the sun during a total solar eclipse is the sun's outer atmosphere, known as the corona. The corona appears as a shimmering ring of light due to the sun's intense heat and magnetic fields. This phenomenon is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the moon completely covers the sun, revealing the sun's outer atmosphere.
Usually, we cannot see the corona because of the brightness of the photosphere. However, during a total solar eclipse, the corona shines beautifully against the dark sky. During a partial or an annular eclipse, a ring of the photosphere is visible around the Moon and the corona is not visible.
During a solar eclipse, the only part of the Sun that can be seen is its outer atmosphere, known as the corona. This is because the Moon blocks out the Sun's bright surface, allowing the fainter corona to be visible.
The bright halo of the sun's atmosphere visible during a full eclipse is known as the solar corona. It consists of plasma released from the sun's outer layer and is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the moon completely blocks the sun's disk, revealing this outer layer. The corona appears as a shimmering halo of white light extending far beyond the sun's visible edge.
The corona is the sun's outermost layer, which is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the moon covers the sun's surface. The corona is much dimmer than the sun's surface, making it visible only when the sun's bright photosphere is blocked.

Sometimes, during a total solar eclipse, the corona of sun is visible to our eyes.
The outermost layer of the sun is the corona. Only visible during eclipses, it is a low density cloud of plasma with higher transparency than the inner layers.
