A team of biologists from the University of Oxford has discovered one of the rarest flowers on Earth in the forests of Indonesia after a long research expedition lasting thirteen years. The researchers documented the moment of finding the rare "Rafflesia hasseltii" flower, where emotions overcame Indonesian biologist Saptian Andrieki, who could not hold back his tears when he saw it blooming before their eyes. Dr. Chris Thoroguh, an Associate Professor of Biology at the University of Oxford, spent days and nights delving into the jungles of Sumatra in search of this unique flower, which only blooms for a few days a year. In an exceptional moment, the team succeeded in observing the flower in full bloom nine months after its growth. As Dr. Thoroguh began to document the scene, Andrieki burst into tears, moved by seeing this rare plant blooming for the first time before his eyes.
