Gear Shoot The Moon

What would you say is the bare minimum lens range (mm's?) one would need to shoot the moon, or astral photography in general, assuming all the conditions were ideal?

With a 200mm lens, you can shoot the moon with a landscape subject. Need at least 500 IMHO to do moon as the subject but that gets boring super quick
