Stars are not dramatically brighter in space (above the Earth's atmosphere). Professional astronomer and two-time space shuttle astronaut Ronald A. Parise stated that he could barely see stars at all from space. He had to turn out all of the lights in the shuttle to even glimpse the stars.
The near-absence of an atmosphere means that stellar imaging is possible at many wavelengths which are not visible from Earth. Long-exposure photos were taken with a special far-ultraviolet camera by Apollo 16 astronauts on April 21, 1972, from the surface of the Moon.

I have noticed that what was science fiction as a child is now science "fact" as an adult. Wise words of bullshit fantasy were used by some even then.

Once you reach a certain age, that healthy imagination is reason to medicate you. Why does it scare certain people that individuals may not fit into a prepared and conditioned box?
