Surreal Campfire in Cosmic Void

A highly structured prompt for generating a surreal, cinematic conceptual art image. It depicts two figures—an astronaut and a young man in flannel—sitting symmetrically around a campfire in a pitch-black cosmic void, where the fire's flames seamlessly transition into a swirling spiral galaxy, emphasizing themes of contrast and human connection in the infinite universe.
