1. This paper reports on the results of the investigation of the outermost regions of the solar corona (which for brevity I shall call the supercorona) that have been obtained during recent years.

Seven years ago, in 1951, a new method of observation was published in Doklady of the Academy of Sciences of the U.S.S.R. The idea of the method, which at the present time is well known, is that the radio emission of the Crab nebula is received at the time when the source is covered by the solar corona. This original eclipse takes place yearly in the middle of June.

By receiving the radio waves that pass through the solar corona regions, we can estimate the effects of attenuation, scattering and refraction and reach some conclusions about the structure of the supercorona.
