The moon pictures I looked at all have histograms displaced markedly to the left instead of being spread out across the entire horizontal axis - meaning they're somewhat under exposed. Attempting to spread out the histogram in-camera by making exposure adjustments will brighten the captured image - failing that the captured image histogram can be spread out in PS using 'levels' adjustment.

I generally expose to the right (highlights) & let the left (dark point) fall where it may.
