The Corona. The outermost layer of the Sun is called the corona or the crown. The corona is very thin and faint and is therefore very difficult to observe from the earth.Typically, we observe the corona during a total solar eclipse or by using a coronagraph telescope which simulates an eclipse by covering the bright solar disk.he Corona. The outermost layer of the Sun is called the corona or the crown. The corona is very thin and faint and is therefore very difficult to observe from the earth.
The atmosphere of the sun is composed of several layers, mainly the photosphere, the chromosphere and the corona. It's in these outer layers that the sun's energy, which has bubbled up from the sun's interior layers, is detected as sunlight.The lowest layer of the sun's atmosphere is the photosphere.It is about 300 miles (500 kilometers) thick. This layer is where the sun's energy is released as light. Because of the distance from the sun to Earth, light reaches our planet in about eight minutes.t's in these outer layers that the sun's energy, which has bubbled up from the sun's interior layers, is detected as sunlight.
