well, somewhere along the line it probably let go... would it get fried by a rocket engine.... hhhmmmm fried bat.... or would it just fly away?
I seriously doubt it would go all the way to space and burn up on re-entry

Bats make no sense. My guess it was trying to hitch a ride back to its home planet.

“Bats make no sense.”
Ergo, our comparison of them to liberals.

Yes, it almost certainly took or fell off at some point...the external fuel tank itself finally falls back to earth, so it’s not like it is actually on the shuttle. Funny story though.

I hope he grabbed a bite before he left...

"Ergo, our comparison of them to liberals." I beg to differ. Bats serve a useful purpose. Liberals don't.

I’m not the one who said they “make no sense”.
I love bats.

Maybe he watched too many Roadrunner episodes.
You gotta wonder what he was thinking as Discovery climbed (oh crap! I had to pick NOW to take a breather!)

"I love bats." So do I. I also like snakes and tarantulas. I guess I'm a little weird.
