Y'know. There's no better way to get better at Photoshop than to keep working at a little project like this. Do what you can, then, when you run into a roadblock, you can hit us with specific questions.

We won't bite.

Much.

Couldn't have said it better myself. And, to help you on your path... check out this photoshop blog. There's tons of stuff there, including how to create an "outer space scene" that should provide you with inspiration. I've learned tons from this site.

Very good place!

I am a huge fan of free tutorials. It's pretty much how I learned most of my Photoshop skills, not that I really have any. You can take what you learn in a tutorial and tweak it to learn something new. I posted a list of sites in another thread. Enjoy!
