Mary is the patron saint of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orlando, which the Bishop claimed included the moon.

Location	Patron saint	Notes
Outer space	Joseph of Cupertino	Because of his ability to levitate, Joseph of Cupertino is the patron saint of astronauts. [115]
Moon	Mary, mother of Jesus	Mary is the patron saint of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orlando, [116] which Bishop William Donald Borders claimed included the moon due to a technicality in the 1917 Code of Canon Law which supposedly expanded the diocese's territory to include the moon following the flight of Apollo 11.
