@quixoticgeek it's going to be pretty much the same - the stars are very far away and our atmosphere very thin, so get to outside of it does not change much in what we see. What we get rid off are the effect of the atmosphere - the twinkling is because of atmospheric effects (similar effect to warm air above a hot street), the stars themselves don't twinkle! So the view is in a way clearer.

@vicgrinberg Are there stars moving quickly and contrarily compared to the movement of most stars?
@sbeebe there are - you may want to look up different typed of high velocity stars here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_kinematics - we do have good explanations for all of them, though, so none of this is truly strange as in "unexplained"
@vicgrinberg what does the night sky look like from space ? Getting above the atmosphere, with the naked eye how would it appear? Is the milky way still distinct ? All the photos I see tend to include earth.
