Why do stars twinkle ? Explain. |
|
Answer» Stars are very distant and approximately point-sized sources. Pair of starlight changes continuously due to gradual changing of the refractive index of the layers of earth's atmosphere. Thus, the apparent position of the stars fluctuates and the amount of starlight entering the eye flickers giving the twinkling effect. |
