ISS 5-13-23
Tracked using my open source SatTraker software (https://github.com/AstronomyLiveYt/SatTraker/blob/master/SatTrakerBetaV5.py )
- How can I use it the most for what I have ?
- Two-Line Element models (and making sense out of them)

Newbies: STOP buying Celestron Nextstar SE's for Astrophotography!
Absolutely it could! My software works great with any Nexstar that I've tried so far. My friend has a 6/8SE mount that he uses with a Nikon P1000 and the camera is the major limitation there, not the mount. https://github.com/AstronomyLiveYt/sattraker

ISS and SpaceX Crew-4 (5/24/22)
Tracked with an 11" Celestron NexStar GPS using my open source SatTraker software (https://github.com/AstronomyLiveYt/SatTraker/blob/master/SatTrakerBetaV5.py ) during an 80 degree pass. Filmed with a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema 4K and 2.5x Celestron Luminos barlow. 42 frames from the peak of the pass stacked in Registax.

ISS with iROSA flare
Captured on 7-16-21 with an 8" Meade LX200 Classic Alt-Az aligned. Tracked automatically with my open source SatTraker software (https://github.com/AstronomyLiveYt/SatTraker ). Filmed with a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema 4K Camera with an exposure of 1/1000s at ISO 25600. The video was converted from Blackmagic raw format to MP4 in Davinci Resolve with 100% denoising in both spatial and temporal with a 5 frame window. The frames were then stabilized using OpenCV and Python based on brightness with a threshold luminance value of 60.
