On that note, the stars all have a 'stellation' along what appear to be the same axes. What is this effect? On the surface of the Earth my assumption was that the stellation/twinkling is an atmospheric thing. In this case is it an effect of gases or some telescopic thing?
Actually if it were telescopic it could probably be analyzed out.
