It Hasn't Rained In The Driest Place On Earth In 2 MILLION Years.
When considering the driest place on Earth, most people might imagine that it would be a desert surrounded by sand dunes, with a relentlessly powerful sun beating down on it. Incredibly, the driest area on the planet is actually located in Antarctica, in a region known as the Dry Valleys, which has had no rain in almost 2 million years.
Almost 3,000 square miles, the Dry Valleys has no precipitation and almost no snow, ice, or water. These valleys are exempt from rain due to the Katabatic winds from the mountains that are so heavy with moisture that gravity pulls them away from the valleys.
