The holes/divots are likely the result of fossil fuel exploration or mineralogical exploration. I recall from one of my classes a discussion of such.

Yes, those bore-holes are definitely big enough to be photographed from outer space!

You realize that they don’t just send a skinny, unbraced 6” pipe a mile down, right? And what do you suppose they do with the crap that used to be in the hole they drilled? Send it home via FedEx?

Fregards.

Suppose you had a push-pin with the pin part 3 feet in diameter, and perhaps 100,000 cubic feet of drilling debris. Could you see that from space on the abyssal plain?
