Greetings,

Years ago I read a science fiction story. I cannot remember the author or name of the story, just the opening plot. I would like to read this story again. Help identifying it will be appreciated.

A robot must escape the planet he is on. His solution is to clandestinely clamor aboard the outside of a spacecraft attach himself to the outside plating and ride the ship to its next destination. That is all I remember about the story.

Thanks in advance, Daneel
