in reply to This spaceship does not exist • • •The image depicts a landscape of ancient stone ruins with tall, partially damaged columns and scattered debris under a twilight sky. A large, disc-shaped flying object hovers above the ruins, and a small moon is visible in the deep blue upper sky. On the ground, a group of figures wearing long, flowing robes stands on a dirt path among the rubble. The ruins include broken walls, a domed structure, and additional columns in the background. The lighting casts warm orange and pink tones over the scene, contrasting with the blue sky.
