  that gets less than 50 millimetres (2 inches) of
  rain per year and is one of the hottest places on
  the earth. A temperature of 57C (135F) has been
  recorded here. Yet plants and animals manage to
  live in Death Valley, fed mainly by underground
  springs and a few streams. There are 40 species
  of plant and animal life here that exist nowhere
  else. Much of the desert is below sea level,
  including the lowest point in the United States,
  which is 86 metres (282 feet) below sea level.
