Ahhhh but you are on the right path in guessing that, Zohar.

Here's the really interesting part... when you fly around that zone a little more, you will also see a cathedral and a handful of ancient ruins that seem VERY similar to those found in Cartenau, Qarn and Mor Dhona.

The Allagans were somewhat very spiritual at some point before evolving into the sci-fi masters of the universe that we now know them to be. More information on their technological advancement can actually be found in the dialogues that take place in the Sirius Palace and World of Darkness raid runs (watch those cutscenes again).

This is what makes that whole Azyz Lla zone very interesting... and I reckon that with the Gration perpetually perched there, the empire are every bit as curious as us about deciphering the secrets of the Flagship. Hopefully, the 4.0 expansion will tell us more.
