Planets do not twinkle because A. they emit light of a constant intensity B. their distance from the earth does not change with time C. they are very far away from the earth resulting in decrease in intensity of light D. they are nearer to earth and hence we receive a greater amount of light and, therefore minor variations in the intensity are not noticeable
Stars twinkle (scintillate) because they’re so far away from Earth that, even through large telescopes, they appear only as pinpoints. And it’s easy for Earth’s atmosphere to disturb the pinpoint light of a star. Thus the stars twinkle.
