There are two main candidates for the shortest sentence in the English language.
The first is the single word exclamation: Go! The challenger is I am.
My vote is for Go!. This has an active verb, an implied subject and a clear meaning.
I am, as a sentence, only has meaning when used as an answer to a question: Who is going to the Moon this morning? I am.
