Ed Mitchell reported that when he got in the shadow of something and let his eyes accustom to the dark sky, he could see stars and that they appeared, in his estimation, a magnitude brighter than from earth.

If you were on the dark side of the moon and earth weren't in the sky either, I imagine you would have a wonderful view of the stars.
