common misunderstanding.  You can hardly see stars in a photograph of a 
planet, otherwise the planet itself would be way too bright.

(in fact, this is one of the so called "proofs" that the moonlanding was 
a fake: there are no stars visible in the photographs.  However, the 
fact that there are no stars visible, is more like a proof that it's 
either real, or a well thought out fake)
