  I don't think you can see many stars.
  Even here on Earth, if you are in a brightly lit room your eyes are
adapted to the brightness (the size of the pupils and all that stuff)
and it's difficult to see many stars outside, even if it's a dark and
clear night. You need to turn off all lights and wait until your eyes
adapt to the darkness before you begin seeing lots of stars.
