Flying Saucer Without Beams

𜱋 depicts a UFO with no beams. It comes from the Sharp MZ-700’s built-in character set, whose ready-made graphics users arranged into screen pictures. A September 1983 article lists flying saucers among those graphics, which gave owners ways to draw despite the computer’s limited high-resolution display. Use 𜱋 for that retro-computer reference; is a separate flying-saucer emoji, and is the MZ-700’s version with beams.

What 𜱋 means

𜱋 is the flying saucer without beams. Unicode classifies it as an “other symbol” — Unicode's shelf for signs that are neither maths, money nor punctuation and files it in the Symbols for Legacy Computing Supplement block; this site shelves it under Lines & boxes.

Its appearance depends on the font and text styling.

Questions people ask

Why does 𜱋 show as a box on some devices?

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
