So it would be advisable to add the same comment here as well:

It's a manner of speach in Spanish
fity = "cincuenta" = "sin cuenta" = countless

And it's a play on words (only in Spanish, as I take it, right?)

This means that the stars are fifty years old, not that there are fifty stars. Is that the intended meaning?

Yes, it sounds better.
