Presumably there are other stars that we cannot yet, and may never be able to see, being as they are, so far away.
If I believed in god then I think this was because god was expecting us to use science to one day invent the telescope, so that we could see and appreciate them. (religious people are always going on about how god created this beautiful world for us....well presumably you mean all the stars too?)
As an atheist I think it's easy to explain all these extra stars.....because there was no "god" involved in creating us or the earth. It therefore doesn't matter that there's lots of stars we
can't see, because they were created randomly, nicely and neatly explaining their apparent randomness!!
I can't imagine any other at all reasonable or logical explanation, though I'm sure there are believers out there who'll give it a go!! LOL
