Antarctica: Earth’s Biggest Desert Extreme Facts
Description
The Antarctic Desert is the largest desert on Earth — even bigger than the Sahara and Gobi combined 🌍❄️. It covers over 14 million square kilometers, but instead of sand, it’s an endless land of ice and snow 🏔️. Despite being frozen, it’s also one of the driest places on Earth — with valleys that haven’t seen rain in millions of years. With temperatures as low as -80°C and brutal winds over 200 mph, it’s one of the most extreme environments on the planet. Yet, penguins, seals, and even hardy microbes survive here 🐧. Antarctica proves a desert isn’t always sand — sometimes, it’s frozen silence.
