+4So.. Why do Stars Twinkle? This question started for me because of Fall. All the leaves are falling off the trees. A once very dark backyard now has much more light from all the streetlights shining in the distance. I couldn’t see those lights before because of full trees. Can’t see the stars near as well anymore as well. Though I started really looking at the streetlights in all directions. Very simply the closest lights don’t flicker/ twinkle. The further away the lights the more they “twinkle” because there is a lot of “Stuff” moving in front of them. In this case random tree limbs and the leaves that are still left. When I was a kid. My dad taught me a basic rule while looking up at the sky. “Stars twinkle. Planets don’t”.. I still find planets that way. “Not twinkling it’s a Planet” Even though tiny and giving off little light, Mars doesn’t “twinkle”. So my logical conclusion was that the further away a Star was the more “stuff” is likely to be moving in front of it causing it to twinkle. So! I decided to Google it and see if my assumption was correct. I was shot down in the first search. Astronomer John A Graham wrote an article for “Scientific American” explaining that it all had to do with the matter in Earth’s atmosphere bending the light. Ok.. then why don’t planets twinkle?
