A solar eclipse.
The thin red rim around the Sun during a total solar eclipse is called the solar chromosphere. It is the lower part of the Sun's atmosphere and is visible during a total solar eclipse when the Moon fully covers the Sun's bright disk, allowing the chromosphere to be seen.
Astronomers believe that the solar system formed from a giant rotating cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula. As the cloud collapsed under its own gravity, it began to spin faster and eventually formed a flat, rotating disk. The Sun formed at the center, while the planets and other objects in the solar system accreted from the material in the disk.
The vast disk of icy comets near Neptune's orbit is called the Kuiper Belt. It is a region of the outer Solar System that contains numerous small icy bodies and serves as a source of short-period comets.
As the solar disk spun faster and faster, it would bulge outward at the equator due to centrifugal forces. This would cause the shape of the disk to become more oblate or flattened at the poles. The increased rotation rate would also affect the magnetic activity and dynamics of the solar atmosphere.
The smallest addressable unit of storage on a disk is called a sector.
When the moon's disk completely covers the sun you have a solar eclipse.
That is a total solar eclipse.

Yes, the solar system including our Sun and planets is believed to have formed from a large disk of gas and dust called a proto-disk or proto-solar disk, due to gravitational effects. It is currently thought that several stars formed from the same cloud as our Sun.
A huge spiraling disk of stars, dust, and gas is called a galaxy. The Milky Way is an example of a galaxy that contains our solar system.
Prominences seen straight on are called filaments. They are seen as silhouette against the solar disk. Prominences refers to features that are cloud-like in the solar atmosphere.
To protect the disk and give information of what the disk contains.
-- During a partial solar eclipse, part of the sun is obscured from our view (by the moon) and the rest of it is still there. -- During a total solar eclipse, the entire disk of the sun is obscured from our view (by the moon).
That's called a solar eclipse. It can sometimes happen at new moon.
