Coronal perfection! Canadian eclipse chaser Andre Sirois got this great shot in Africa in 2001. | ||||||||
| The structure of the corona at any eclipse is a result of the sun's monstrous magnetic field twisting and bending molecules of gas trapped near the sun. | |||||||||
| It all begins with the partial phases. Here, the Moon makes its way across the face of the Sun. | |||||||||
| A great close up shot of Baily's Beads - sunlight glimmering through valleys on the Moons rugged limb. | |||||||||
| In August 1999, the corona was composed of long, sword-like streamers that made the eclipse look like a giant crab in the sky. | |||||||||
| So many phenomena - so little time! See all the pink and red prominences from the Sun's chromosphere. |
|||||||||
| The coronal streamers extend 3 million kilometers into space! | |||||||||
| The chromosphere burns brilliantly crimson in this close up from Miloslav Druckmuller. | |||||||||

| Compare coronas!
The shape of the corona varies with the 11-year cycle of solar activity. |
