Gday,
I saw a post down below about a crop circle?
Thought it might be fun to start another Google Earth search thingy...
So what is this?
Lat 24°20'43.60"S
Long 133°27'56.28"E
Cheers

Very likely a centre pivot irrigator.
At the centre is usually a pump, or derlivery point from a pump elsewhere. The pipe rises around 4m out of the ground, turns at right angle and then runs parallel to the ground. It's held up by a-frames with wheels, and has sprinklers hanging off it
In most instances the water pressure also drives the system, so start it up and the water jets out of the sprinklers while the whole system rotates.
