Indeed and even if surely not the best, they seem to show there are still two major gaps. ...

That is obvious, what is more interesting to me is that the most forward bow module appears to be a little bit sharper, I wonder if the bulbous hull has been attached.
Probably not at time of photo taken. The distance of the 1st module is very close to the basin wall as we see from earlier photo, too close to make a clear room for mounting the bulbous hull. After the two gaps are joint by moving the pieces away from the wall, the room should be comfortable enough to mount the bulbous hull.
