Why star twinkle but planet not ? |
|
Answer» stars are very far from us thats by there light come on the earth by crossing many refracted medium that\'s why they are twinkling and plants don\'t twinkle because it do not have its self light and it is stay near the earth that\'s why its twinkling property is zero. Stars are very far away from us and appears as a pint source of light. Sometimes atmosphere retracts more light and sometimes less light. This continuous brighter and dimming effect make the stars to twinkle whereas planets r a collection of point sources. So, brightening effect caused by one part is nullified by the dimming effect caused by another part. Hence, planets do not twinkle but star does. |
