That's a LOT more work than writing an article that says hope it's clear and look up tonight.
I don't see you paying any subscription money.

That's true but you said

Which is bullshit because you certainly can. In fact you can take all of them in just three shots with an 18mm kit lens, well within the range of most people who would care to stand on a hill and take a picture. Obtaining a picture isn't hard at all, and you could probably do it in 10 shots zoomed in on the same kit lens, then stitch it with free or low cost software online. It's not going to be the JWST, but "not something that can fit in a picture" and "VERY difficult" are BS.

I'm not sure how you determine that, but that said if I wanted that picture, I'd just go take it. Astro mounts for a camera are relatively cheap.

Take the picture for us.
Document how long it took you and the cloud conditions that night, and your normal rate of pay for work, and your equipment and price for it.
I stand ready to be corrected. I expect quality, publishable images.
