The ship will be in pretty bad shape. It doesn't look like it's crashed, exactly, but it certainly looks like it has been there for a long time. Ariane, having been on a ship like this, will have an easier time than most navigating what could otherwise be quite a hazardous trip. Much of the ship is unstable and liable to collapse catastrophically to a buried lower deck if too much pressure is exerted or the wrong thing is pulled free.

Ariane will also be able to tell that all of its systems were fried / overloaded at about the same time, resulting in a lot of radiant explosive damage. She'll be able to salvage some of the parts of various systems, but they'll require some work to get anywhere functional again.

Artifact-wise, there's actually plenty to find! You know better than we what sorts of things would be available, but generally, it'll be clear that this was a crewed ship and in fact that after it ended up here in this desert somehow, it was used as a temporary shelter by its crew for a little while. Feel free to get creative in terms of what Ariane actually finds to support that.
