Stars do not really twinkle, they just appear to twinkle when seen from the surface of Earth. The stars twinkle in the night sky because of the effects of our atmosphere. When starlight enters our atmosphere it is affected by winds in the atmosphere and by areas with different temperatures and densities.

Hope this will help you!!!

desidaru: no not really
desidaru: stars light pass through gasses of various densities with different layers of atmosphere hence they get refracted continuously
desidaru: as the densities of gases keep changing

Stars twinkle because of turbulence in the atmosphere of the earth. As the atmosphere churns the light from the stars is refracted in different direction The causes the stars image to change slightly in brightness and position hence twinkle
