Have a look in the beginners and deep space imaging sections of the forum. There are folk achieving incredibly fine detail with as little as 61mm of aperture.
What you're asking is incredibly more complex than just an aperture & exposure length as was alluded to in an earlier response.
Pixel size, pixel number, sample ratios, sensor size, tracking accuracy, seeing conditions, cooled/uncooled camera... all these & more affect image quality & resolution achievable.
