उत्तर

Planets are much closer to the Earth and are seen as extended sources. So, a planet may be considered a collection of a large number of point-sized light sources. Although light coming from individual point-sized sources flickers but the total amount of light entering our eye from all the individual point-sized sources averages out to be constant. Thereby, planets appear equally bright and there is no twinkling of planets.
