Unlike stars, planets don't twinkle. Stars are so distant that they appear as pinpoints of light in the night sky, even when viewed through a telescope. Because all the light is coming from a single point, its path is highly susceptible to atmospheric interference (i.e. their light is easily diffracted).

HEYY THERE!
Why do planets not twinkle?
The first and the foremost reason is that, the planets are situated closer to the Earth, and they are not luminous of their own.
Light from the Sun or other Stars reflect from them to our eyes (if we see them through the telescope). They are nearer, so the refracted light rays have to travel less distance to reach the observer. So, there is no effect of scattering or change of density of atmospheric layers in the apparent position of the planets, due to which they do not seem to twinkle.
Hope my answer is satisfactory!
THANKS.....
