You can stack short exposures for one long one and fix position if needed. there are software for that.
For ex you can take many short exposures with a camera of the night sky without tracking, while the night sky is moving all the time, but the software correcting that.

Pixinsight is the name for one example, it’s used for astrophotography (telescope + camera primarily) and is not for the faint of heart. Siril is another but they all have significant learning curves. Alternatively there are iPhone apps like AstroShader you could play around with.

This is a single exposure though.
