“The Big Corona” is copyrighted by Koen van Gorp. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteMost photographs do not adequately portray the magnificence of the Sun's corona. The human eye can adapt to see features and extent that photographic film usually cannot. This picture is a combination of thirty-three photographs, digitally processed to highlight faint features of a total eclipse that occurred in March of 2006. It captures the delicate structure of the corona.
