Leaving ashutter open

Hi! I have used very few camera's in my life. But i saw some incredible
slides (not digital) on a slide show presentation. The slide depicted
the movement of the stars over a period of twenty minutes. It was
suposedly done by leaving the shutter on a camera open. Hows that work?
Can i do it?
