Watching the Stars

Wouldn't it be fun to be able to lay outside at night and watch the stars? I wish I knew how to do this without attracting bugs. I'd probably fall asleep and that would be okay too as long as a bear or other critter didn't come along. I guess campers get a chance to watch the stars. But laying on top of a hill? I don't have a bucket list but this looks like an awesome experience to have. Have any of you done this?
