Yes, so long as there is no bright light to force their pupils to contract, thus letting in less light. Science Fiction shows make people think that once you are in space, stars are bright enough to be seen through a window in a well-lit room. This simply is not true. The astronauts on the lunar surface didn't see stars as it was daylight and the Sun on the lunar surface was simply too bright for their eyes or cameras. In fact, their helmets had "sunglasses-like" darkening, as the Moon gets more sunlight than any desert on Earth.

What views stars from orbit?

Stars appear as distant points of light from orbit, similar to how they appear from Earth but without the interference of the atmosphere. Due to the lack of atmospheric distortion, stars appear brighter and clearer in space. The darkness of space also allows astronauts to see more stars than we can from the surface of the Earth.
