In 1971, what happened in the Atacama Desert for the first time in 400 years?

Never heard of this. Have learned a lot from this game.

I knew that the Atacama desert only gets about an inch of rain a decade.. The umbrella was a big hint

Player Say what!?, you and me both

Player Say what!?, this game is sooo informative, I love it. Was wondering does any type of animal lives there. Thought maybe I would find an answer in the the info this game provides. Kudos to whoever does the work for this trivia game.

Stefan, How you phrased your comment is so confusing

Norsegoddess1950, Umbrella isn't a big hint. There's barely any people living or going to Atacama Desert. Majority of people don't dare to go there (excluding scientists and for scientific research). They (the author of a question) put any pictures they want.

Player Say what!?, I never heard of the desert either

Player Say what!?, yes & so have I

Player Say what!?, same I've learned a lot too first I thought that this game was a lie
