Chile's Atacama Desert, the driest place on Earth, has seen one of the greatest floral displays ever recorded there. About 200 species are blooming, some in areas where flowers had not been seen since before the new millennium. Good News Network reported that the seeds and tubers stored in the soil have been reactivated by recent rains. The bloom has turned the desert into one of the most colorful places on the planet within a few weeks. Visitors and researchers are drawn to the spectacle.
