Looking forward to finding out what those shiny spots are on the surface, my guess would be ice reflecting light but all the same what an achievement :-)

Ice? Nah, I think it's just an alien lighthouse

Aliens aside, could it be signs of a fresh impact that's removed the dust that dulls the rest of it ?

They are security lights, spoiling their neighbours evening in the back garden

It depends how much fresh...those spots aren't new, they were photographed by Hubble in 2004.
