** A recent poster <ref>https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=162998&p=2519619&viewfull=1#post2519619</ref> suggested that it might be a miniature space station and the little flecks of light are its tiny ships. Further speculation included ejecting gold nearby to tempt the Leprechauns out of hiding, suggesting an Irish origin. These theories have yet to be disproven.

* The Leviathon Theory
* The Leviathan Theory
** Influenced by possible clues in the Wings 1.2 Trailer,<ref name=":3" /> this theory picks up many references which appear to point towards the word 'Leviathon'.<ref>https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=162998&p=2568833&viewfull=1#post2568833</ref> The Leviathon was a 200 metre long fish which inhabited the planet New California in the Laiququ system. Unfortunately, that system doesn't appear to exist in the game.

Unfortunately, that system doesn't appear to exist in the game. Another version of this theory involves Junior the intelligent dolphin and his companion, also from Frontier First Encounters.
* The Phage Theory
* The Phage Theory
** On 14 July a Galnet article mentioned an outbreak of disease, which mentioned a three pronged 'phage like' organism' <ref name=":4" /> which led people to make the connection that the UA could be a Phage of some sorts, as it looks similar in some ways.<ref>https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=162998&p=2551422&viewfull=1#post2551422</ref><ref>https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=162998&p=2569753&viewfull=1#post2569753</ref> Earth Phages are microscopic organisms, so the UA's host would have to be enormous, which is a scary thought.
