I did that, I ripped the relevant part (the pigment) from the include file and
pasted it into my script, and reduced the scale a little bit, to make the stars
smaller:

But the stars are still twinkling a lot:

I find it surprising that such a seemingly simple task (use a static bitmap as a
fixed background in an animation) is so hard to accomplish. Is there no way to
do that within povray?
