SOLUTION

Stars twinkle because they are so far away from earth that they appear as point sources even when seen through powerful telescopes. The light rays coming from them are refracted multiple times, making them look as if they were blinking.

The sun & other planets, however, are quite close to us , and thus appear like disks.

Hope this helps you mark me branilylist please

Explanation:

The planets being closer to the Earth do not appear as point sources of light. ... As the light from the planets are not completely blocked from our sight and they do not twinkle. Stars on the other hand are point sized objects and twinkle by atmospheric refraction of light.
