Explain why do stars twinkle and planets do not

Answer»

rning There's your answerUnlike STARS, planets don't twinkle. Stars are so distant that they appear as PINPOINTS of light in the NIGHT sky, even when viewed through a telescope. Because all the light is COMING from a single POINT, its path is highly susceptible to atmospheric interference (i.e. their light is easily diffracted).
