प्रश्न
Do stars really twinkle?
लघु उत्तर
उत्तर
- No, stars don't really twinkle.
- The apparent position of the stars keeps changing a bit.
- The motion of atmospheric air, changing air density and temperature changes the refractive index of air continuously.
- If you were to observe stars from space, where there is no atmosphere, they would shine steadily without twinkling.
