The most famous bat in the world
And our winner is: cavanisfidm. Here is the full story from NASA as well as a few more pictures(how many megapixels does their cameras have anyway?).
Although we remained hopeful he would wake up and fly away, the bat eventually became IPR 119V-0080 after the ICE team finished their walkdown. He did change the direction he was pointing from time to time throughout countdown but ultimately never flew away. IR imagery shows he was alive and not frozen like many would think. The surface of the ET foam is actually generally between 60-80 degrees F on a day like yesterday. SE&I performed a debris analysis on him and ultimately a LCC waiver to ICE-01 was written to accept the stowaway. Lift off imagery analysis confirmed that he held on until at least the vehicle cleared to tower before we lost sight of him.
And thus is the legend of the STS-119 Bat-ronaut….
Here is the infrared picture showing the bat was still alive:
A-yo!!

hahaha why would this be in so many media
just a bat…
Yo that was a hard one to guess!!
So I feel like I should at least guess…I’m gona say the pic was taken with a 1 megapixel high resolution digital camera. I searched and searched for this silly lil answer so if I’m wrong…this means I dont know how to work this here in-tra-net!
and what happenned next? baby bat’ is alife?
^
isn’t 1 megapixel really shit
it would have been epic if he went to space
