Once upon a time the universe came into being. Part of it was dust and gas that eventually clumped together until it got big enough for the gravity holding it together to initiate fusion. The stars started to shine. For some reason the gas and dust was concentrated in certain places so that lots of stars were grouped and became galaxies. Our star is part of one of the galaxies and we see the other stars in our galaxy.

well if you believe in such things, the big bang had so much gas after it happend, that the stars started to form. A little fun fact, some light from the stars we see today, left the stars before the earth was formed.

Does there have to be a reason?
The stars we see are just a tiny fraction of all the stars and galaxies in the universe.
Physics and chemistry explains how they form, live, and die. But there doesn't have to be a human reason, they're there for us to admire, and to work to understand.

Because we would be blinded by all those extra lights if they where here on earth, just think isn't much better that there up there than down here?
