Funny how you have to use this atomic weapon example when you reject tidally torn comet theory that has exactly the same underlying ballistics.

A nice image of another hole but I don't believe it is the original post aforementioned hole

It looks like your image is in the midst of a heavily cratered plane with a somewhat sizeable crater toward the top of the image but the PDF file image seems to be of a more sandy plane (like where opportunity is) with little noticeable cratering around the lip of the hole and no sign of the afore mentioned crater
