Probably the center should be shot with short exposures. Then overlay it onto the periphery.

Yes, I've heard of that method. I just don't know how to do it yet. I'm only taking my first steps in astrophotography. Thanks for the advice.

Considering the red zone and first steps, this is an excellent result. As the saying goes, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." Good luck.
