Abstract
We are now at both the maximum of the solar activity cycle and at the most populated part of the saros. I discuss the solar corona over the recent saros and its changes with the solar activity cycle. We consider the scientific value of eclipse studies and how they relate to other ongoing coronal studies on the sun and other stars.
