About the Infinity Gauntlet
The Infinity Gauntlet is a fictional armored glove designed by Marvel and it plays a significant role in the MCU, especially in the story of Thanos, the supervillain / warlord from the Moon Titan.
It houses six stones, and each of them is tied to a different aspect of the universe: green, blue, red, yellow, purple and orange for time, space, reality, mind, power and soul respectively.
When all six stones are in place, the person wearing the Gauntlet will have all the power of the universe.

The gauntlet first appeared in Thor, and it was a right-handed gauntlet.
It made another appearance in the mid-credits scene of Avengers: Age of Ultron in 2015, and this time it was a left-handed gauntlet.
It was worn again by Thanos, portrayed by Josh Brolin, in the 2018 Hollywood movie Avengers: Infinity War and the 2019 sequel Avengers: Endgame.
