Edwin Buzz Aldrin and Dr. Anca Faur wedding must have been spectacular.
Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin, the second person to set foot on the moon after crewmate Neil Armstrong in 1969, married his “longtime love” on Friday, his 93rd birthday.
On Twitter, the former astronaut announced his wedding.
“On my 93rd birthday & the day I will also be honored by Living Legends of Aviation I am pleased to announce that my longtime love Dr. Anca Faur & I have tied the knot,” Aldrin wrote. “We were joined in holy matrimony in a small private ceremony in Los Angeles & are as excited as eloping teenagers.”
He shared two photos, one of himself in a tuxedo and the other of Faur in a long-sleeved glittering gown.
In another Friday tweet, Aldin thanked fans for their birthday wishes. “It means a lot to me, and I hope to continue serving a greater cause for many more solar revolutions,” he wrote.
Mission commander Neil Armstrong, lunar module pilot Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, and command module pilot Michael Collins launched Apollo 11 on a nearly 250,000-mile journey to the moon in July 1969. They arrived at their destination four days later.
