Man's plans to land on the moon and make it an extension of the Earth caused great uproar. The plan was to make it possible for man to step on the moon and expand technological devices, but the Catholic Church certainly took history very seriously.
After the arrival of Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong in 1969, lunar space now had a bishop in charge. Not only that, but any other man who can step back on the moon will one day have access to the religious councils of the Catholic Church.

As guided by Canon Law, Code 1917, any discovery becomes part of the Church in which the movement was made. So, yes, there is a bishop of the Moon, although this religious man has never set foot on it. This is John Noonan, from the diocese of the city of Orlando, where the launch of the astronauts, better known as Operation Apollo 11.
The first man to assume the post of Bishop of the Moon was William Donald Borders. He even presented himself in this way to none other than Pope Paul VI, who was the pontiff on the occasion of the man's trip to the Moon. The Pope was surprised by the bishop's presentation and showed confusion when he noticed the title of the religious who was in front of him.
Evidently, this is not a title that anyone can acquire. However, this is just a nomenclature, as there is no way to literally be bishop of a place where there are no people living, as directed by the Diocese of Orlando:
"Since we haven't found any life on the moon yet, this story emphasizes Bishop Borders' good and humorous nature," he commented.
Perhaps, in the near future, when the intention of making space an extension of the Earth is fulfilled, the Bishop of the Moon will be able to exercise his true function.
