Amazon River like you've never seen it before, from space! This titan of nature not only surpasses the Nile in length, with nearly 140 extra kilometres, but it's a real freshwater machine, pouring an astonishing 105,000 billion litres per minute into the Atlantic. But that's not all: Their basin is a biodiversity paradise, home to about 2,500 species of freshwater animals you won't find anywhere else. A natural spectacle that demonstrates why it's one of the planet's greatest treasures. Impossible not to marvel!
