UK TV is reporting a "gash" in the thermal tiles around the area of the u/c door on the starboard wing. , revealed after the backflip video was examined. I suspect that this is typical exageration as I havnt seen the hi def images yet. I'd appreciate comments re the following http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/shuttle_col_outline_1.jpg ................which shows my intepretation of the shuttle from the images I took on Thursday evening. There's a noticeable lighter area around the door......which has been puzzling . I first thought it was simply image artifact , but the same area is present in a handful of images.
