In a new study, a graduate student Benjamin Boe from University of Hawaiʻi Institute for Astronomy used total solar eclipse observations to measure the shape of the coronal magnetic field with higher spatial resolution. The study was done in over a larger area than ever before unveiling the mysteries related to the sun's corona magnetic field. Sun’s corona can be seen only with special instruments or during a total solar eclipse.
