No. The Earth is rotating, so the stars appear to be moving. Even in a few minutes you can see this happening. If you look at a star and look straight down to the horizon, or a rooftop or a tree top or whatever you will have a reference point for where it is. Just a few minutes later, if you are still in the same position and look again, you will see that the star appears to have moved. Sometimes you will see a star disappear behind a branch of a tree and come out on the other side a few minutes later. If the moon is out, you can look at how near a star is to it and then later in the night if you look again, you will see the distance has changed. So the night sky is constantly changing. That is part of the wonder of it.
