I think the consensus is that the Bat is toast now, The Bat may have been stuck to the tank cause of the cold.

Maybe that bat was blown off by the passing winds but probably had to pass through that superhot flame.

I agree with SuperJoker:
The bat got toasted. I´m affraid it was not its day!
But NASA did take lots of precautions since the area is something like a Natural Park or reserve for wildlife.
Just another failed step of Earth´s life to conquer outer space: quite a hard/dangerous mission.

Reminds me of the question what is the last thing that goes through a bug's mind when it hits your windshield?

What the bat thought is a byproduct of that answer.

The little bat was headed for doom
He took off into space with a zoom
Just wanted a ride
But then he got fried
Who'll donate some cash for his tomb?

Your words
They were understood.
On top of that
They were very good.
As for the bat
Well, as they say
That is that.
