Do stars twinkle?

Not really. A star seems to twinkle because its light all comes from a single tiny pointand has to go through Earth's turbulent atmosphere. Planets don't twinkle, becausetheir light comes from a larger point. And in orbit or on the moon, stars don't either.They do not -so viewing them from space they do not.Only viewing them from Earth do theydo that, due to the atmosphere interference.No, stars really don't twinkle in the sky. The reason that stars seem to twinkle when you look at them is because there is a lot of atmosphere between you and the clouds. This causes the stars to disappear for a fraction of a second and reappear, making them seem to twinkle.No, stars really don't twinkle in the sky.

Why is it that stars twinkle for earth but not from the moon?
