Can You Photograph The Milky Way With The Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus?

People keep asking me if you can shoot the milky way with the S9 Plus, so I went out to try it during a new moon the other night. It didn't work. At all. So I decided I'd try to find the optimal conditions for astro/night landscape photography with the phone. I also go over how I use Pro mode to get the settings you need to capture some stars.
