Answer 1

Hi

Here is ur answer

_________________________@@

# Stars are situated far away from the Earth and they are placed behind many atmospheric layers.

# And also the light passes through different medium and gets refracted many times before reaching Earth.

# Therefore, it seems like stars twinkle.And the twinkling of stars are known as scintillation.

Hope it helps U

Answer 2

in general twinkling of stars is caused when light rays pass from different medium also when the stars refract from different directions...

with change in density of the medium the internsity of light entering in our eyes through stars changes

for ex, In the ☀daytime the region or atmosphere near the sun is warm as compared to those of near to earth

thus then arises the change in medium

the atmosphere near ☀ sun becomes rarer while near the earth the medium will be denser thus the amount of light entering will change with change in medium

~~~~As a result stars blinks or twinkles

so in other words we can say that stars blink or twinkle because of the turbulence caused in our atmosphere
