US-SPACE-SHUTTLE-ENDEAVOUR
Using the shuttle robotic arm and 50-foot-long Orbiter Boom Sensor System (OBSS) 12 August 2007 the STS-118 crew photographed this close-up view of damaged tile on the underside of the US Space Shuttle Endeavour during a focused inspection of the shuttle's heat shield while docked with the International Space Station. The 56-square-centimeter (nine-square-inch) gouge near a landing gear hatch was apparently made by a piece of foam possibly covered with ice that broke off the shuttle's external fuel tank 58 seconds after blastoff.
