Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The white lines streaming from the Sun indicate the solar corona, which can only be seen during a total solar eclipse. An annular eclipse does not show the corona, a total lunar eclipse does not involve the Sun, and a partial solar eclipse does not usually show the corona to the extent displayed in the question.
