Answer:

Twinkling of Stars. The twinkling of a star is due to atmospheric refraction of starlight. ... The atmospheric refraction occurs in a medium of gradually changing refractive index. Since the atmosphere bends starlight towards the normal, the apparent position of the star is slightly different from its actual position.
