Total solar eclipse as seen in India. October 24, 1995. This image shows the coronal shape typical for minimum of the solar activity cycle. The coronal structure is changing during the eleven-year solar cycle significantly. It is spread approximately evenly to all spatial directions near the solar cycle maximum (for example 1990, 1999, 2001 eclipses) but near the solar cycle minimum the coronal intensity is much greater in equatorial plane than in polar regions.
