I was curious if this was based on a low winter sun at a polar attitude, but it's not. The location in Chile is only 24°S (Miami is 25°N) and the nightfall timing makes me think this mid-November. That puts the sun in the frame for half the span of the day frames. So instead of being a cool example of a weak sun as I thought, someone spent 3x as much effort to simulate the placement of celestial objects to exemplify how we are just a little rock spinning in space. The stars don't come out at night, the day just hides them. We're always sitting under the stars. Relevant xkcd: https://xkcd.com/2849/

And actually, given that that xkcd was posted Nov 1, I can't help but wonder if it's related.
