Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It appears as white streamers or plumes of ionized gas that flow outward into space. Temperatures in the sun’s corona (opens in new tab) can get as high as 3.5 million degrees F (2 million degrees C). As the gases cool, they become the solar wind.

Detailed explanation-2: -The outermost layer of the sun’s atmosphere is called the corona, meaning “crown.” The corona is formed of thin wisps of gas that extend outward into space for millions of miles. It is much less bright than the photosphere, so we can only see it if the rest of the sun is blotted out, for example during a solar eclipse.

Detailed explanation-3: -The uppermost portion of the Sun’s atmosphere is called the corona. It extends many thousands of kilometers above the visible surface of the Sun, gradually transforming into the solar wind that flows outward through our solar system.
