I addressed the discrepancy in country and location in the article. The city near the coordinates is listed 'darvaza', not darvaz. The light blue-green to the north west could be the result of mining, supporting the drilling theory. All this add to the mystery to me. Maybe someone can fund a Whales In Space field trip to Turkmenistan and I'll check it out. The coordinates 40°15′8″N 58°26′23″E take me straight to the ‘crater’.
