{{Quote|Only recently discovered, these mysterious artefacts currently have no designation. Despite much conjecture as to the nature of these objects, it appears that the scientific community is unwilling or unable to openly identify the artefacts' origins. Such mystery only serves to make these objects more widely sought after by wealthy individuals and organisations alike, no matter that their unidentified status automatically prohibits them form being sold on any legal market.|In-game description}}
The '''Unknown Artefacts''' ('''UA''') have been reported to look like a form of sentient life, far beyond what we humans are capable of creating. Some people are speculating that this is the work of [[Thargoids]], who haven't been seen since their disappearance, while others have other theories. To date, none of thees theories have been proven, and it is 'exceedingly rare' and only a few pilots have been able to see one themselves, making it extremely challenging to carry out tests and theories. They can be sold for around 250k cr.▼

*From a distance away it makes a loud whale like sound with some muttering and can be spotted by some sparkling and some purple/green gas-like colours.
*It seems to be made of three parts, the head (it looks like a giant egg with an place at the top where it seems like it can open up but some parts glow when the whale noise happens), the stork or spine (it seems to have four parts to it and lights up too to the whale noise), the pods or capsules (there are twelve of these).

*While inside your ship's cargo hold the UA acts like [[Toxic Waste]] by doing corrosion damage to ALL your ship modules.
*They are illegal salvage, so if you have it in your ship and a NPC System Authority scans you, you get a fine of 55,000cr
*They can be sold for around 250k cr.

== Finding them ==
These Unknown Artefacts can be found in [[System Signal Sources|Strong Signal Sources]]. Timocani and 109 Virginis are the only two systems ''confirmed'' to spawn them, but [[Michael Brookes]] has stated that they are 'exceedingly rare' and that they are only available in certain regions of the galaxy, which would suggest that they are in other systems too. Since v1.3 no new UA discoveries have been reported.
