The moon was shining brightly on the water. From Google maps I found the satellite view, a rough idea of where the camera was pointing, and the latitude and longitude in

I bought this Arducam MIPI camera for the Raspberry Pi. It is 4672*3496 and the best that anyone seems to have gotten is 1 frame every 10 seconds. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07W6LTFZC.
