The twinkling of the stars is caused by changes in temperature and pressure in our atmosphere. Therefore it is random, and not a meassure of the stars.
twinkle twinkle little stars? twinkle twinkle little stars?
they are in the sky, they twinkle, and the suns a star
Stars in the universe twinkle because of refraction not gravity.
All stars twinkle in some way. This effect occurs because the stars are so far away from the earth that the light they emit actually bends a bit in Earth's atmosphere thus producing a wavering light. So yes, the stars of the little dipper do twinkle.
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.
Stars twinkle because of the abberations in their light path from dust and gas in space, and most especially from the earth's atmosphere. Some nights they twinkle much more than others. On a very clear night, after a very still day, they twinkle relatively little.
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
