Explain why the planets do not twinkle.


Answer :

Planets, do not twinkle as they are closer to the Earth than those distant stars, so planets appear larger in comparison.

Due to the planets’ closeness to Earth, the light coming from them does not bend much due to Earth’s atmosphere.

Therefore, the light coming from our solar system’s planets does not appear to twinkle.
