Nothing, hence total solar eclipse.

Actually, the mass of the Sun itself is hidden behind the Moon, but the tenuous and wispy atmosphere of the Sun, called the "corona", extends a few million miles out into space. The corona is fairly dim; compared to the brilliance of the Sun itself, the corona is invisible. But when the Sun is hidden behind the Moon, the corona is still mostly visible.

The red ring that is visible around the darkened disk of the Moon during a total solar eclipse is called the solar corona. It is the outermost layer of the Sun's atmosphere, composed of superheated plasma. The corona is usually invisible due to the overwhelming brightness of the Sun, but during a total solar eclipse, it becomes visible as a beautiful halo of red or white light.
People observe a total lunar eclipse more often than a total solar eclipse because a lunar eclipse is visible from a much larger geographical area. In a lunar eclipse, the Earth casts a shadow on the moon, resulting in a visible red hue on the moon during totality. On the other hand, a total solar eclipse is only visible along a narrow path on Earth, where the moon completely blocks the sun, creating a temporary darkness during the day.
The next solar eclipse will be a total solar eclipse on July 22, 2009. The eclipse will be visible in a path from northern India through China and across the Pacific ocean. It will not be visible in Europe or the Americas.
