Buzz Aldrin Treated by Dr David Bowie in Middle Earth (NZ) in Remarkable Coincidence?

Buzz Aldrin treated by Dr David Bowie in remarkable coincidence
"Buzz Aldrin, the second person [?] to walk on the Moon, is being cared for by Dr David Bowie in a New Zealand hospital after being evacuated from the South Pole.

In a remarkable coincidence, Mr Aldrin's doctor shares the name of the late British singer whose greatest hits included songs such as Starman and others about space travel, which could easily have been penned for the great American astronaut.
The strange circumstance certainly tickled Mr Aldrin's manager, Christina Korp, who posted a photo on Twitter of Mr Aldrin and Dr Bowie together in a Christchurch hospital.
"Thank heaven @TheRealBuzz's doctor is David Bowie," Ms Korp said on Twitter.
"You can't make this stuff up."

Bowie, the singer and actor, released his smash hit Space Oddity about a fictional astronaut who loses communication with ground control in 1969, just days before Neil Armstrong and Mr Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the Moon.
Their moonwalk, part of the Apollo 11 lunar landing, was watched by a then-record television audience of 600 million people worldwide.
Bowie, who also adopted the alter ego of Ziggy Stardust, followed the success of Space Oddity with the release of Starman in 1972.
Mr Aldrin, 86, was evacuated from the South Pole on the weekend after falling ill and was flown to Christchurch on New Zealand's South Island, where he remains in quarantine.
He has been advised by doctors to remain until fluid in his lungs clears.
Bowie, who won the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2006, died earlier this year."

Lucky that he didn't go to the moon then;-)

The "movie screen" in  the movie 'Arrival'?-)

Something is going down (in Christchurch?), that's for sure;-)

UPDATE: December 9th, 2016

Can 2016 get any stranger?

John Glenn, first American to orbit Earth, dies at 95
"John Glenn, whose 1962 flight as the first US astronaut to orbit the Earth made him an all-American hero, has died.
The last survivor of the original Mercury 7 astronauts was 95.

Mr Glenn died at the James Cancer Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, where he was hospitalised for more than a week, said Hank Wilson, communications director for the John Glenn School of Public Affairs."
John Herschel Glenn Jr had two major career paths that often intersected: flying and politics, and he soared in both of them.
Before he gained fame orbiting the world, he was a fighter pilot in two wars, and as a test pilot, he set a transcontinental speed record.
He later served 24 years in the Senate for Ohio. A rare setback was a failed 1984 run for the Democratic presidential nomination.
His long political career enabled him to return to space in the shuttle Discovery at age 77 in 1998, a cosmic victory lap that he relished and which gave him the record for 

the oldest person in space.

More than anything, Mr Glenn was the ultimate and uniquely American space hero: a combat veteran with an easy smile, a strong marriage of 70 years and nerves of steel."
