Night photography is hard on any camera. I wanted to test this out on an Nikon 1 camera. In my opinion, at least, on a screen, it didn't turn out too bad. Any thoughts?

Not good. A lot of cell phones can do better now.

The easiest way to get this sort of shot nicer is to shoot a bunch and then stack the exposures -- as is commonly done for astrophotography. And, in case you're wondering, the cell phones that do better do stacking for you.
