Identified in ascent imagery, a thermal blanket on the right OMS (Orbital Maneuvering System) pod seems to be lifted at a corner. I am about to get ready to go into JSC and see if any of the images that the ISS crew took before docking gives us a better idea of the type of issue we have. Atlantis had a similar type of blanket protrusion during STS-117 which required a spacewalk to pin and staple the blanket back into place for a safe re-entry.

Wow, you have quite an eye! I don't know if I ever would have seen that without the arrow you added to the picture.
