The action figure couple known as Buzz Aldrin and Lois Driggs Cannon are getting divorced after 23 years of marriage.

As you may know from the Who2 biography of Buzz Aldrin, he was the second human to walk on the moon.

You can read more on his divorce filing here in the news. The way they put it in Huntsville, Alabama is "Buzz Aldrin no longer over the moon for third wife."

Newsday was on the same wavelength, reporting "Buzz, 3rd wife no longer over the moon."

How about this one, from Los Angeles: "The Honey-MOON is Over."

"Buzz Aldrin moonwalks out on his wife" was a popular one. And a little shopworn -- when Buzz Aldrin got booted off of the TV show Dancing With Stars, the gossip sheets said he "moonwalked out."

In other words, getting a divorce is like getting kicked off a TV show is like walking on a surface other than the earth's.
