Due to the planets' apparent closeness to Earth, the light coming from these celestial bodies does notbend much due to Earth's atmosphere. ... Therefore, the lightcoming from our solar system'splanets does not appear to twinklelike stars.

Answer:

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).

The much closer planets appear instead as tiny disks in the sky (a distinction more easily discerned with a telescope than with the naked eye).
