This paper reviews our present understanding of coronal heating, structuring and variability that has emerged from space observations of the Sun and nearby stars. It is shown that a basic analogy exists between solar coronal physics and the phenomena observed in the coronae of other late-type stars. Recent X-ray observations of stellar coronae from EXOSAT are used to illustrate the main points.
