I have a few NUCs for various purposes, mostly because they’re cheap and versatile.
I’ve not had a problem with any of them running off 12v. If you don’t need the processing power, then look for one of the Atom based older generations, as they really sip power - I measured mine at 2W. The Atom models are now out of favour and so dirt cheap.
The Core-based ones can be pretty reasonable, but not that low. And once you add a nice SSD and memory to it...you just have to watch whether the cost hits your target.
FWIW, you don’t need a fast machine to do deep space imaging - a faster unit is really only useful if you do processing on it as well.
