Spacebat
Bereft of his ability to fly and with nowhere to go, a courageous bat climbed aboard our Discovery with stars in his weak little eyes. The launch commenced, and Spacebat trembled as his frail mammalian body was gently pushed skyward. For the last time, he felt the primal joy of flight; for the first, the indescribable feeling of ascending toward his dream—a place far away from piercing screeches and crowded caves, stretching forever into fathomless blackness.
Whether he was consumed in the exhaust flames or frozen solid in the stratosphere is of no concern. We know that Spacebat died, but his dream will live on in all of us.

"On a cool spring eve March 15th, 2009 a bat, crippled and wistful, clung to the Space Shuttle Discovery as it was thrust toward the great beyond. Goodbye and godspeed, my magnificent Spacebat."

Spacekees
1. An unusually absent minded person who often misinterprets social situations and sarcasm in humorous ways.
2. A person who fails to see cause and effect, causing humorous or obvious conclusions to be concluded.
3. A person who is or seems to be a catalyst for strange events. When around a type 3 Spacekees strange events take place, either as a direct result of the presence, or just by pure coincidence.
4. A person who can be occupied with (seemingly) unimportant and/or trivial objects.
The origin of the word "Spacekees", arguably, comes from Dutch 'stoner' circles, where the words "spacend" and "kees" were appended. Spacend meaning 'seemingly unreal' or 'mind blowing', and Kees being a stereotypical Dutch name (which is nowadays often used in humorous context).
Nowadays the use of the word has spread to other circles, which do not necessarily need a connection to mind-altering drugs. Now and then it is just shortened to "Kees" in very clear contexts.
