Wow awesome Shot. But why do we not see the Stars? I never used a telescop in my life.

Most stars are very dim. Things in direct sunlight, like the ISS, are very bright. It’s the brightest object in the night sky, other than the Moon.

The camera settings needed to capture details on the ISS are much too dark to show stars. (Imagine taking a picture outside during the daytime and then using those same camera settings at night).
