∙ 15y agoStars themselves do not really glitter- the light from them has to pass through the Earth's atmosphere to reach us, where it gets diffracted and bent. This creates the illusion that the stars, when we look at them, are 'twinkling'. When seen from space, stars look a lot brighter than they do from Earth, and have a steady light.

∙ 11y agoIts due to atmospheric refraction of the light rays coming from the star.Light ray from a star travels the space unhindered. When it enters the earth atmosphere,it undergoes refraction due to varying optical densities of air,The continuously changing atmosphere(due to varying atmospheric temperature and density) refracts the light from the stars by varying amounts and in different directions from one moment to the next. .....stars never glitter....it just seems that they are twinkling

Rather, they travel in elliptical orbits, which often take them well outside the plane of the Galaxy.
