Stars are hundreds or thousands of light years away from us, so they can be considered as point sources of lights. The light rays emitted by these stars enter into the earth's atmosphere and undergoes continuous refraction, because each layer of earth's atmosphere has different density. They go on refracting and the light rays reaching our eyes will be bended like an arc. Thus we see the stars in an apparent position, which is slightly different from the actual position. Due to continuous refraction the amount of light gets fluctuated. We see that the position is slightly altered. This causes the Twinkling effect.
twinkle twinkle little stars? twinkle twinkle little stars?
Stars in the universe twinkle because of refraction not gravity.
Stars twinkle due to the Earth's atmosphere and its turbulence, which causes the light from stars to refract and flicker as it passes through. The twinkling effect is not related to the presence of oxygen specifically, so stars can still appear to twinkle in the absence of oxygen.
NO!
It was twinkle twinkle little stars
It's not really a nursery rhyme, but a song, "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".
This is because the Earth's atmosphere has many layers which causes the rays of light coming from the stars to refract. This gives the effect that stars twinkle. The air around the moon does not have layers so the rays from the stars do not refract, and thus do not twinkle.
No. Stars twinkle on Earth because the light beams have to enter the atmosphere, altering the brightness of the star by the second. Since the moon really doesn't have a atmosphere, stars seen from there wouldn't twinkle.
Planet: No twinkle Star: Shimmer and twinkle
because when the light enters the atmosphere it goes in zigzags or long dot zigzags

Stars do not twinkle from the moon because the moon does not have an atmosphere like the Earth does. The twinkling of stars is caused by the light from the stars passing through the Earth's atmosphere and being distorted by the movement of air currents. Since the moon lacks an atmosphere, the light from the stars does not twinkle when viewed from its surface.
