| 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.[117][118][119] |
