🔍 Step-by-step Analysis:
#### 1.
Aliens (8)
Look for small, cartoonish alien figures.
- On the
left side, inside a curved shape (like a planet or space station), there are
7 aliens.
- One more alien is near the
top-left corner (just below the "8 Aliens" label).
- Total:
8 aliens ✔
✔ So, you should
color all 8 aliens.
---
#### 2.
Spaceships (2)
Look for large rocket-like vehicles.
- There’s one big spaceship in the
center-top (with two round windows).
- Another one is on the
right side, shaped like a flying saucer with a dome.
- These are clearly distinct from satellites or other objects.
✔ There are
2 spaceships ✔
👉 Color
both spaceships.
---
#### 3.
Satellites (2)
Satellites are usually boxy with solar panels or antennas.
- One satellite is near the
top-center, next to the astronaut.
- Another is near the
middle-right, beside the UFO-like ship.
- Both have rectangular shapes with lines (antennas/solar panels).
✔ There are
2 satellites ✔
👉 Color both satellites.

#### 4.
Astronauts (4)
Look for human-like figures in space suits.
- One astronaut is standing on the
bottom right.
- One is standing on the
bottom left, next to the planet.
- One is floating near the
center-right, beside the satellite.
- One is floating near the
top-right, near the UFO.
Wait — let’s double-check:
Actually, looking closely:
- Bottom right: 1 astronaut
- Bottom left: 1 astronaut
- Floating near center: 1
- Top right: 1
- And one more near the
top-left, behind the spaceship?
Wait — actually, let's count carefully:
-
Bottom right: 1 astronaut
-
Bottom left: 1 astronaut
-
Center-right: 1 astronaut
-
Top-right: 1 astronaut
- But wait — there’s also an astronaut
floating above the spaceship?
Looking again:
- The figure near the
top-left (under the spaceship) looks like a small astronaut? No — it’s an alien.
Wait — let's identify properly.
Upon close inspection:
-
Bottom right: 1 astronaut
-
Bottom left: 1 astronaut
-
Center-right: 1 astronaut
-
Top-right: 1 astronaut
That’s
4 astronauts ✔
Yes! All four are wearing space suits and helmets.
👉 Color all
4 astronauts.

✔ Final Answer:
| Item | Count in Image | Matches Given? | Action |
|-------------|----------------|----------------|--------|
| Aliens | 8 | Yes | Color all 8 |
| Spaceships | 2 | Yes | Color both |
| Satellites | 2 | Yes | Color both |
| Astronauts | 4 | Yes | Color all 4 |
