I think it would be easier just to use sprites. Position them a way infront the camera (but not directly infront the camera so that they never hit), adjust their size to suit the type of star and then just shoot them past the camera. To create the "trail" effect, you can just do some simple particle effects, or use "Homeworld trails".
