Corona

The transcript discusses the Sun's corona, highlighting its extreme temperature of over 1,000,000°C compared to the Sun's visible surface at around 6000°C. The corona is typically visible from Earth only during a total solar eclipse. It is not evenly distributed, with concentrations in some areas and near absence in others, influenced by the Sun's magnetic field.
