⏩⏩ they’re closer to Earth and so appear not as pinpoints, but as tiny disks in our sky. You can see planets as disks if you looked through a telescope, while stars remain pinpoints. The light from these little disks is also refracted by Earth’s atmosphere, as it travels toward our eyes. But – while the light from one edge of a planet’s disk might be forced to “zig” one way – light from the opposite edge of the disk might be “zagging” in an opposite way. The zigs and zags of light from a planetary disk cancel each other out, and that’s why planets appear to shine steadily.
CHEERS ‼️
The earth's atmosphere is mostly turbulent and has a rapidly varying density. Thus light coming from any light source in the outer space suffers atmospheric refraction. The earth's atmospheric refraction thus causes the images of distant heavenly objects to appear to "swim", that is the image of the same point may seem to be formed at a slightly different point in the image space and this results in a visual effect of the temporary disappearing of the image (provided the image is too small to be recognized as a disk and is nearly a point image) namely "twinkling". The stars though much larger than the planets, are so distant that they appear like point objects in the night sky and thus their images suffer the twinkling effect. The planets though small are much nearer and can be resolved as disks even with binoculars and hence their images are too big to suffer twinkling
