Giant Kazahkstan Pentagram seen on Google Maps

Do a google maps search for the following coordinates.

+52° 28′ 47.14″, +62° 11′ 8.38″

what is up with that? Are the Kazahks massive Motley Crue fans or what?

Then again, Kazakhstan is pretty far away both in geography and time warp. It could be likely as ever that they are just resurgent Crue fans

had to look this up, my company just opened an office there. growing markets there.
Though it's difficult to discern from an aerial photograph exactly what the Kazakh pentagram is, Emma Usmanova, an archaeologist with years of experience working in the Lisakovsk area, has an answer.
"It is the outline of a park made in the form of a star," Usmanova told LiveScience. The star was a popular symbol during the Soviet era (Kazakhstan was a part of the former Soviet Union until its dissolution in 1991). Stars were often used throughout the Soviet Union to decorate building facades, flags and monuments. (Several online comments had suggested the star shape was the abandoned site of a Soviet-era lakeside campground.)
