RE: Luna-2: First spacecraft to reach the moon
I was also unable to find anything unfortunately. It's possible they haven't located it yet as it was a somewhat small spacecraft. Several of the later Luna landers have been photographed from orbit though.
I had a quick look on http://quickmap.lroc.asu.edu but the crash coordinates were only approximate and it would kind of be like trying to find a needle in a haystack, assuming it's even visible!
Interesting link! I'm sure the Luna-2 remains are somewhere in this pictures, but I'm not sure we'd even know what we were looking at looking at how blurry the images get on the closest zoom. Unfortunately without more accurate crash coordinates it is going to be very difficult to locate this.
