This has been explained a lot of times already; points in the far distance hardly move relative to the aircraft. When you drive on the highway, do you see the moon or stars flash by? The trees do, because they are close. Confirms logic.

If these are 8 second exposures then please could you explain how the camera records the stars as sharp pinpoints of light even when these shots are from a vibrating aircraft and are presuably without a tripod.Defies logic.
