[sci.space.shuttle] Bees in space

  Does anyone know what happened with the bees they sent up on
 a mission a while back ?  Did they find a way to 'fly' and did they
 build a hive ?

Did the bees build a hive?  Now there's a comical thought, take enough bees
into orbit to build a hive.  Imagine what it would be like if all those bees
got loose.  That could be mighty distracting when trying to land.
