If that is indeed the spot, and it looks like it is, then I agree a long term plan would be a trek (couldn't resist) toward the large crater to the south. It looks like there is a lot of white material along the way too. There's an even larger crater to the northwest but that's a pretty ambitious drive. Easily a dozen kilometers.

I heard the year estimate on the news. A reporter was quoting a scientist on best case senarios.
