Answer to Question 1

X-ray light and ultraviolet light do not penetrate the Earth's atmosphere, but we can solve this problem by building space telescopes. In visible light, the photosphere is much brighter than the corona and chromosphere, but we can block the photosphere's light with something inside our telescopes or observe the sun during a solar eclipse.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
