An imagination of flying in the gas clouds of space. 

Actual images of nebulas taken with the Hubble space telescope were combined in After Effects with CG gas clouds and stars made using Trapcode Form and Starglow.

Hej Peder, check out this video from 1977, http://youtu.be/0fKBhvDjuy0, there they say that the stars dont move because they are too far away.

Mario, this is just an imagination. But clearly there would be parallax effects even between stars if just the travelling speed is high enough.
