Lake Dukan Lake in Iraq is a human-made reservoir that was fully formed in 1959 .
The lake is a sought-after landmark for astronauts on board the International Space Station during the holidays.
It is a large tree-shaped triangle that stretches up to 6 miles ( 10 kilometers ) across from its "base" to its "top"; and a smaller gangly offshoot appears to hang off the top like a wonky star.
