In this view of Discovery seen from the International Space Station, one of two protruding gap fillers can be seen jutting out from between the shuttle's belly-mounted heat tiles. The gap filler is the white object popping out of the black tiles to the upper left of Discovery's nose in this view. Credit: NASA/JSC. Click to enlarge.
