I found this cool site for LRO images, but I can't unerstand if/how it is possible to know lat/lon of a point in the zoomed image.
If not, is there any site/program which allows to do this?

The first of those, at least, looks to me like a kipuka (I just wanted an excuse to use that word- Hawaiian for "a depression between surrounding lava flows"). The terrain inside the depression seems unremarkable- just a region that happened not to be covered by the last lava flow. The flow fronts do look remarkably fresh, though. The second one I'm not so sure- hard to tell given the lighting but there seem to be some unusual textures in there.
