    The twinkling is caused by the atmospheric refraction of light in stars. As starlight is refracted through the turbulent atmosphere of the Earth, it is continuously refracted because of the different densities of air and temperatures. This causes alternation of the apparent location of the star, which leads to the twinkling effect.
