Does earth has a corona?

Yes, Earth does have a corona, but it is not the same as the solar corona. Earth's corona is a rarefied layer of gases surrounding the planet, primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. This outermost layer of Earth's atmosphere extends into space, gradually thinning out as it merges with the solar wind.


Do solar neutrino carry energy?

Yes, solar neutrinos do carry energy. Neutrinos are extremely light, neutral particles that are produced in nuclear reactions within the Sun's core. The energy carried by solar neutrinos can affect processes such as nuclear reactions on Earth.


When there is a lunar eclipse observed from earth what eclipse will be observed from moon?

During a lunar eclipse observed from Earth, a solar eclipse would be observed from the perspective of the Moon. This occurs because the Earth blocks the sunlight from directly reaching the Moon, resulting in a solar eclipse from the Moon's point of view.


How is a lunar and solar eclipse alike?

Both lunar and solar eclipses are the result of positioning 3 astronomical bodies (earth, sun and moon) in a straight line relative to the observer. A solar eclipse is observed when the sun, moon, and earth are positioned in a straight line with an observer on the earth. A lunar eclipse is observed when the sun, earth, and moon are in a straight line with an observer on the earth. A lunar eclipse, as observed by an observer on the earth would appear as a solar eclipse as observed by an observer on the moon.


A suns what looks like a halo during a solar eclipse?

The halo effect that is sometimes observed around the sun during a solar eclipse is known as the solar corona. This occurs when the moon aligns perfectly with the sun, obscuring its bright surface and allowing the sun's outer atmosphere, or corona, to become visible. The corona is much less bright than the sun's surface, so it appears as a glowing halo of light around the darkened moon.

What is a solar neutrinos?

Solar neutrinos are electron neutrinos that are in the sun. The sun is what produces nuclear fusion.

Do you see the corona layer from earth?

No, the corona layer of the Sun is only visible during a total solar eclipse when the Moon blocks the bright sunlight. The corona is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere, extending millions of kilometers into space and is best observed during a total solar eclipse when the Moon covers the Sun's surface, revealing the corona's faint, ethereal glow.


When solar flares increase solar wind from corona what do they cause earth upper atmosphere?

The Aurora.


When solar flares increase solar wind from corona what do they cause in earth's upper atmosphere?

The Aurora.


When can the chromosphere and corona of the Sun be viewed from Earth?

During a solar eclipse.


What two parts of the suns outer layer are only VISIBLEfrom earth during a solar eclipse?

The solar corona, and solar prominences.


Why can the sun's corona only be observed during an eclipse?

Actually, the solar corona can be observed at ANY time, if you have the proper equipment. This device, called a coronagraph, creates its own eclipses by blocking the direct light from the Sun and allowing the corona to be observed. The problem is that the Sun is so insanely brilliant that things that are merely "a little bright" are invisible in comparison. When the Moon blocks the direct view of the Sun, then the corona (which is much larger) is finally able to be seen.

What do tears in the Sun's corona provide an exit for?

Tears in the Sun's corona provide an exit for solar material and charged particles, which escape into space as the solar wind. This phenomenon can impact space weather and affect the Earth's magnetosphere.


How was the sun's corona discovered?

The sun's corona was first observed during a solar eclipse in the 17th century when the moon blocked the bright solar disk, revealing the faint outer atmosphere. This resulted in Spanish astronomer Josep Comas i Solà giving the name "corona" due to its crown-like appearance.
