Have you ever looked up at the night sky and noticed the stars sparkling and twinkling? It’s so pretty! But why do they do that?
Well, it’s not the stars themselves that twinkle—it’s the air around us!
When the light from stars travels through Earth’s atmosphere, it bumps into moving air and different temperatures. This makes the light bend and wiggle, so it looks like the star is twinkling!
🌠 Fun fact: If you were standing on the Moon or in space, the stars wouldn’t twinkle at all! You’d see them as steady lights because there’s no air to bend the light.
🌟 Let’s Imagine!
Go outside on a clear night. Look at the stars and imagine you’re an astronaut. What do the stars look like from space?
💌 Foxy’s Twinkle Challenge!
Foxy the Fox wants you to draw a starry sky. Add lots of twinkling stars and even a moon if you like!
Final Thought
Next time you see stars twinkling, remember—it’s not magic, it’s science! And now you know the secret behind the sparkle.
