JSC2004-E-50470 (25 November 2002) --- The original photograph in this image was taken during the Space Shuttle Endeavour’s approach to the International Space Station for docking during the STS-113/11A assembly mission. An indentation in a micrometeoroid debris panel on the exterior of the Destiny Laboratory module is indicated by an arrow in an enhanced section of the image provided by the Image Science and Analysis Group at the Johnson Space Center. Analysis of this image and additional video indicates that the indentation is not from a debris strike, but is consistent with flat spots seen on other areas that are likely the result of significant temperature changes. The protective shield’s function is not affected by the indentations.
