How would people living in eternal day learn that stars exist?

In a world I am building, the day lasts longer than the year, 9 times longer in fact. The native people of this world have been forced to migrate around the world, both avoiding the scorching desert of noon and the freezing winter of night. This world is otherwise rather unremarkable on the surface. Outside of the planet is a ring as well as many small moons, so many that the tides are rather small and unpredictable, but as I was designing their culture I realized something, without seeing the stars, would the have astronomy?
