No one admits to leaving the door open, which allowed it to slip out unnoticed. The signs they posted in the neighborhood haven’t led to any calls. They told NASA that it has gone to visit a lovely farm where it will always have other tomatoes to play with.

Surely the tomato would be rotten by this time. Would have been better that he did eat it (and why shouldn’t he?)

In space, it is better to find the tomato before the tomato finds you.

That tomato’s loss may have temporarily set back the progress of space agriculture science but it’s never too late to ketchup.

I figured they probably had other tests planned for it?

Maybe. I hope for their sake they grew a second, back-up tomato!

Great, now maybe they can finally find that teapot for our buddy Bertrand.
