Is it possible to use a 70-200 F 2.8 for astronomy photography??

Hello.

I have a 70-200 F 2.8 lens,I bought this for certain aspects of photography,and the images are amazing.I had no thoughts of using for astro work,I have tried using it for a few astronomy photography episodes,But the results had lot of reflections.Is it possible to use this lens for astro work,if so,what settings?

I hear the 70-200 F 4 Non IS,is very good for astro work,along with the 200 mm prime.

No drama if I cannot use this lens for astro work,but would be a bonus.

Thanks for advice.

Chris
