The insulating foam prevents ice from forming on the tank when it is filled with 500,000 gallons (1.9 million liters) of supercold liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen before liftoff.
为什么会脱落呢？在航天飞机被发射出去之前，它的外部燃料箱里会装满50万加仑（合190万公升）的极冷液态氢和液态氧。
Cameras and an inspection team spotted the bat clinging to the side of Discovery?s 15-story external tank as it was being fueled with propellant ? super-cold liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen.
摄像机和一个检查小组捕捉到了这只蝙蝠的图像，它紧紧地贴在发现号15层的外置燃料箱上，当时正在进行灌注燃料（超低温的液氢和液氧）的程序。
This device helps vent gas that boils off from the liquid oxygen tank, and also bathes the top of the tank in warmed nitrogen to prevent ice from forming.
这个装置有助于排除液氧燃料箱蒸发的气体，并且它还可以用加温氮气笼罩箱顶，以防结冰。
