Getting from orbit to the surface didn't just mean taking the next shuttle.

B33 needed several updates and anti-malware protection. Her hydraulics were adapted to gravity, and amazingly, someone found her wings, which were useless in a vacuum and therefore had been unscrewed long ago..
Her operator had insisted that she'd travel with the dog for her protection.
So the dog had to be chipped, get several vaccinations, a dewormer just in case and so on....

Finally they reached the surface.
Since the dog wanted to say hello to every single tree on earth, they spent a lot of time in parks, which was so much fun that B33 almost forgot to take the promised selfie to send to her operator as a message that they had arrived safely and on time.
