Take a shoe outside during a sunny day and take a picture of it.

At night, take a picture of the Moon.

What do these images have in common? They are both of sunlight reflected once, which means they were taken using the same settings!

So anything sunlit in space is going to be so bright you will have to lower the exposure settings to not get an over-exposed image, which will also result in no stars, as they are so much weaker.
