If we watch the night sky daily, we will notice that the sky is studded with bluish silver twinkling dots. They are Stars, several light years away. The star look static, hardly moving across the sky. But you can see planets moving across the sky. Planets move on complicated path with respect to the background stars, faster than the speed of the Earth, and sometimes, they even reverse their directions. Every planets moves with different speed on its orbit around the Sun. Thus, the planets position from the Earth changes with time.
A stark difference between the stars and the planets is the stars twinkle and planets do not. We all know that the Sun is a star. The reason why it does not twinkle, and appears larger than other stars, is because of its close proximity to Earth.

How can you determine if a celestial object is a star or a planet?
One way to determine if a celestial object is a star or a planet is by looking at its characteristics. Stars are typically much larger and hotter than planets, and they emit their own light. Planets, on the other hand, do not produce their own light and instead reflect light from a star. Additionally, planets orbit around stars, while stars do not orbit other objects. By observing these characteristics, astronomers can differentiate between stars and planets.
