Upgrading. Which Lens?

It's time to upgrade from the stock 18-55mm.
As I already have the Nifty Fifty, I'm thinking that either of these lenses would almost fill the gap.
Canon EF 28mm F2.8 $369
Canon EF 24mm F2.8 $539
I'll be using it for Terrestrial as well as Astro work.
Price is a big consideration here. If I can get away with the cheaper lens, that would be great.
The reviews I've read say they are comparable in optical quality.
Has anyone used either lens for Astro work??
Is there any other lens that you would recommend? It doesn't have to be a prime.
Thanks.
