A middle-aged astronaut, swallowed by the bulky garb of his space suit, stares out the small window of a cramped spacecraft illuminated by dim lights. The frame tightly captures his weary face, marked with a mix of anxiety and sadness. Outside, the Earth dwindles in size as the artificial satellite slowly deorbits. Soft hues of evening sunlight spill upon him from the opposite window, casting long shadows over the surrounding equipment.

The focus is purely on the astronaut and the distant Earth, emphasizing the depth of space that separates him from his home planet. His eyes reflect the warm earthy colors, adorning the scene with a sense of longing, balance and bitterly-sweet nostalgia. The faint odor of the sterile spacecraft contrasts with the scent of rich earthly soil that he genuinely misses.

From a low camera angle, on the edge of the limited space within the craft, the camera zooms slowly back onto his face to portray the complete isolation and yearning to cope with the welcoming embrace of loneliness.
