The Sun has five main layers: the core, where nuclear fusion occurs; the radiative zone, where energy is transferred outward by radiation; the convective zone, where hot plasma rises and cooler plasma sinks; the photosphere, which is the visible surface of the Sun; and the chromosphere, a thin layer above the photosphere that emits a reddish glow during solar eclipses. Above these layers is the solar corona, which extends far into space and is visible during a total solar eclipse. Each layer plays a crucial role in the Sun's structure and energy generation.
