How do I get a photo like this?

If you go to certain areas in Alaska, it may be possible. You can definitely see some fantastic stars at higher elevations and darker areas in general (like in the Rocky Mountains), but I've never seen anything like this in person.

You'd need just the right angle and as little unnatural light as possible. It's hard to get any photos like this in many places across the U.S. because of all the light saturation from buildings, street lamps, cars lights, etc.
