You will need a tripod that can move with the rotation of the earth. You will need to leave the lens open for a while to get an exposure. If you don’t have the equipment to move the camera you will have blurry streaks as the stars and the space station move through your field of vision.

Make sure your camera is on a stable tripod and put your camera on shutter priority for 1/16 or longer, depending on how dark it is outside. Good luck!
