Doing ls lists what looks like multiple files.
But if we use the -l (dash L) option, which uses a long listing format, we see that it is in fact a file with spaces in its name.
There are many ways to deal with files that have spaces in their filename. Two of the most common ways are:
1. To surround the filename with quotes or double quotes.
2. To use escape characters.
