Abstract Preliminary results of the solar X-ray observations from Skylab are reviewed, indicating a highly structured nature for the corona, with closed magnetic loop structures over a wide range of size scales. A description of the S-054 experiments is provided, and values are given for parameters, including size, density, and temperature, describing a variety of typical coronal features. The structures and evolutions of active regions, coronal holes and bright points are discussed.
