The image depicts a group of astronauts in a barren, grassy landscape under a clear sky. The foreground features a prominent astronaut in a green spacesuit with a large, reflective orange visor, carrying a gun in their right hand. The astronaut's suit is equipped with a backpack and various pouches, and they are walking towards the viewer. In the background, a fleet of astronauts, similarly dressed, follows in a line, also carrying guns.

The scene suggests a science fiction setting, possibly on another planet or a distant world.
