Answer 2

The stars twinkle more than rest of the stars near the horizon because the atmosphere is more dense close to the horizon.

Detailed Explanation

• Near the horizon the atmosphere between stars and us is more as compared to the atmosphere overhead between us and stars.
• The light of star near horizon passes through more air to reach our eyes and as the stars move away from the horizon it decreases the effect as it travels through comparatively less air.

The above points mentioned it clearly why stars that are close to horizon twinkle more than other stars.
