How to enable Astrophotography on this Pixel 3a’s Google Camera 7.2 APK?

As far as I know there no options to enable Astrophotography mode. This is enabled by default if following conditions are met.
There are few things required primarily to enable Astrophotography:
– It can be enabled on Night Sight mode
– The phone must be kept static
– There must be low light condition
– It takes few minutes for this mode to come up when the above conditions are met

It takes 30 seconds to capture one image in this mode.
