Best lenses for APSC astrophotography?

Hey ya'll,

I recently joined the Canon camp by jumping on their refurb deals on the T6i, I got it with their 18-55 and 55-250. So far very impressed with the camera, although I'm still a newbie. At this point I plan on learning with these two lenses to determine the focal lengths I want most, but I know for a fact that I need one or two lenses specifically for astro. What are your recommendations? I'm interested in both milky way/landscape type stuff as well as moon/planet/deep space astro (I know I will have to invest in an expensive mount for tracking).

Thanks for any advice and happy new year to all.

Canon EOS Rebel T6i (EOS 750D / Kiss X8i)
