GUEST,eldergirl on another computer BS: Odd ideas (56* d) RE: BS: Odd ideas 23 Feb 14


stars twinkle: planets don't. that's how you can tell the difference.
now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I always thought that the twinkling was caused by the Earth's atmosphere refracting(?) the light as it arrived..
but my old college chum was convinced that planets do not twinkle because their light is only reflected light.
help?
