I want to do an animation where I fly past the planets. How do I make a
background of stars, where the stars won't move while I fly along the
positive Z axis?

Simple answer, use a translation of your stars object which matches
your camera position. If all your moving is the x then like:
#declare XposCamStars=clock*Distance and use that for the x value in
both camera and stars object translation vectors.
Sorry if I'm repeating others answers, I'm offline.

Or use Chirs Colefax's Galaxy include file - either with a large "star
sphere" (I forget the correct term) or (again) moving the stars so
that they remain relative to the camera :)

Just like in real life, put them a long way away.
Hope this helps, but sometimes when you're bogged down in code
you miss the obvious answer.
