Buzz Aldrin's Wife Anca Faur Dead at 66: A Life Cut Short
In a devastating blow to the astronaut community, Buzz Aldrin's wife, Anca Faur, has passed away at the age of 66. Just two years ago, in January 2023, the couple tied the knot in a small private ceremony in California, with Aldrin marking his 93rd birthday on the same day.
Faur, a brilliant chemical engineer with a Ph.D. from the University of Pittsburgh, was an accomplished professional in her own right. She served as treasurer for the California Hydrogen Business Council and executive vice president of Buzz Aldrin Ventures LLC. Her love for engineering and innovation is a testament to her intelligence and dedication.
Aldrin remembered his late wife as "the love of my life," who brought joy to everything they did together. He expressed his gratitude for finding Faur, describing their marriage as a source of happiness in his life.
The news of Faur's passing comes as a shock to fans of the legendary astronaut, who gained international fame for making three spacewalks throughout his historic eight-year career at NASA. Aldrin served as the Lunar Module Eagle pilot for the Apollo 11 mission, walking on the Moon for 19 minutes alongside Neil Armstrong.
Faur was not Aldrin's first wife; he had been married three times before finding love with Faur. His previous marriages ended in divorce, but his union with Faur seemed to be a long-lasting and fulfilling one.
With the passing of Anca Faur, Buzz Aldrin has lost an integral part of his life. Her death leaves a void in the hearts of those who knew her, and the astronaut community is mourning the loss of a brilliant and loving woman.
Aldrin's love for Faur will be remembered as a testament to the power of true love and companionship. As he navigates this difficult time, fans around the world will hold him and his late wife close in their hearts.

Buzz Aldrin just lost his partner in crime aka Anca Faur 
what a waste 66 is way too young 
Aldrin got lucky three times before finding love with her 
and now he's left with all these memories of the good times they had together 
it's so sad how life can be cruel sometimes 
Buzz Aldrin's wife Anca Faur was like a rock 2 him & she was soooo intelligent n smart 4 her age lol! I mean, only 66? that's crazy! 
She had a PhD n was all about engineering n innovation which is super cool! 
I'm glad Buzz Aldrin spoke highly of her bc she seemed like an amazing person n woman 
. Sorry 2 hear this news, it's just so sad when ppl we care bout lose someone special 
totally deserved a longer life 
at least they had each other until the end 
i mean buzz aldrin is a legend but you gotta respect anca's accomplishments too 
anzca fazur was such an amazing woman - not just for being buzzs wife but also as a brainy engineer herself 
she had it all together - career, love, life... and then its gone 
at least we know anzca lived an amazing life, filled with love, innovation & adventure 
I mean can you believe she was a chemical engineer with a PhD and all that? 
and to think she brought so much joy into his life must've been incredible for him 
. It's like the government allocates funds for Mars exploration but forgets to prioritize our mental health and support systems 
. I mean, what kind of system allows someone to get married just two years ago and then loses them two years later? 
It's like they're not even given a chance to make their mark on this world 
. We need to rethink our priorities as a society and focus on supporting each other more than we do the elite 
.
. RIP Anca Faur, you will be missed 
. Anca Faur might be gone, but her legacy lives on through the work she did and the impact she had on those around her
