Theory	Citations	Notes
Uluru is actually a depiction of Sylar or a symbol thereof.	None.	+ His being invincible would have to do with the rapid regeneration ability he was planning on taking from Claire. It could also depict how his hunger for power will spiral to massive proportions. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru can bend space and time like Hiro.	None.	+ The only time Uluru is heard speaking is when he says to Isaac Mendez "What have you done?". Because Isaac continued to take drugs and paint the future, both Peter and Sylar found out about the explosion, leading to both their meetings with Ted Sprague, which would have lead to the explosion. However, when Uluru speaks to Isaac, he has not yet painted the explosion. This may hint at the fact that Uluru saw the explosion and believed it was Isaac's fault, which would explain why he accused Isaac of doing something.
Uluru will be the thing that the characters are actually supposed to face...after it kills Sylar.	None.	- There is really no other evidence that Uluru will become important aside from Isaac seeing Uluru and Hiro having him as a background on his computer screen. + Isaac also painted Uluru, and Uluru appeared on the cover of "9th Wonders" a comic produced by Isaac Mendez. • The legend of Uluru also has a creation myth attached to it: the Dingo, a supernaturally enhanced creature. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru could be Jessica.	None.	+ She's already out of control and this can be a development of that. Or this could be her form when completely separated from Niki. She has said that she's in control now and she seems to think she's unstoppable. She might end up being the true antagonist. - As of Landslide, it seems that Jessica and Niki are finally on friendly terms. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru could be Peter.	None.	+ Peter is one of only two characters powerful enough to be him (Sylar, pre-Hiro-stab being the other). + All his powers, especially regeneration, could easily justify him referring to himself as "invincible", just like Uluru. + His power comes from his depth of emotion, which is not always controllable or predictable. It could be that after being seriously hurt or betrayed by people he cares about, or from losing them, that he could utterly lose control of his emotions, turning him into a raging Uluru. + In Unexpected when Peter was fighting Isaac, as Peter became enraged, his voice became deep and distorted. - Sylar also seems to have a deepened voice at times. Both Peter and Sylar's voices become deep when they use their telekinesis. + "Uluru" is the aboriginal name for Ayer's Rock in Australia. According to these native tribes, this monolith was central during the events of "Dreamtime". According to Aboriginal legend regarding the Dreamtime: "every meaningful activity, event, or life process that occurs at a particular place leaves behind a vibrational residue in the earth ... Everything in the natural world is a symbolic footprint of the metaphysical beings whose actions created our world. ... The Aborigines called this potency the "Dreaming" of a place, and this Dreaming constitutes the sacredness of the earth. Only in extraordinary states of consciousness can one be aware of, or attuned to, the inner dreaming of the Earth". The concept of Dreamtime is, of course, subtle and complex, and there are varying interpretations of it. However, this understanding coincides perfectly with Peter's empathic connection to other people through power absorption as well as through his apparently psychic dreams (such as knowing details about Nathan's accident as it was happening, sharing a dream with Charles Deveaux right before he died, the vision of himself exploding, and perhaps even the dream he had of his brother turning into Sylar). + Most important, however, is his name. His first name and last name, Peter Petrelli, both come from the Latin term 'petra' meaning "rock." + An aboriginal legend about the Uluru tells of warring serpent beings who scarred the rock. Peter's scar may allude to this. • There may be religious references of note. The "rock" on which Jesus supposedly wished his church to be built was a man whose name changed from Simon to Peter. That we had a Simone in a relationship with Peter (until her death, of course) is quite the parallel. - Tim Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books. • This doesn't mean there will be no metaphorical allusions in the show.
Uluru will be a villain in a future season.	None.	+ Uluru has appeared as a formidable rock monster on the cover of 9th Wonders!, Issue #13. He also appeared in a dream/hallucination in which he menacingly towered over Isaac. • In How to Stop an Exploding Man, Molly mentions the existence of somebody "far worse" than Sylar. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru is the being who sees Molly when she looks for him.	None.	+ While using his power, Isaac sees Uluru - and Uluru sees and speaks to Isaac. - Isaac was, however, on heroin at the time. + Isaac Mendez used heroin to draw even before he drew Uluru, meaning that the heroin would not necessarily cause him to draw a hallucinatory image rather than an actual predictive image. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru is Peter and Nathan's father.	None.	+ Angela Petrelli told Peter that his father thought he was invincible. Peter had a vision when Nathan had an accident and when Charles Deveaux died, but he did not feel anything when his dad died, so he may be alive. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru is a symbol of Isaac's drug addiction	All representations of Uluru have originated from Isaac's drawings (9th Wonders!)
Peter will explode at the end of this season and the other heroes will think he is lost forever. But Peter will regenerate his subatomic particles, which will combine with the subatomic pavement and building materials that would be at the blast site, and thus become Uluru.	None.	+ In Isaac's vision, Uluru says, "Isaac! What have you done?!" which was echoed in "Unexpected" by Peter after Isaac had shot Simone. - The evolved humans' abilities reside in their genetic code, on a biological level. If Peter were to explode, his DNA would be broken down at an atomic level, destroying his power of regeneration. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru is the tied to the show LOST.	None.	+ Isaac of Uluru is a character in the show. - Uluru is the name of a sub-mountain, and indigenous religous location, in Australia where Isaac of Uluru (from LOST) lived. Since Australia exists in both shows, Isaac of Uluru and Uluru the Unstopable are not nessesarily connected. - LOST is on ABC, while Heroes is on NBC, which are competeing networks- it is unlikely that they will tie anything together with those two shows. + Jeph Loeb was a writer and supervising producer for Lost and is now co-executive producer and a writer for Heroes. Cross-references between the shows may be evidence of his influence. This fact is referenced in the commentary for Episode 20 found on NBC.com
Uluru has no role in the television series whatsoever.	None.	+ Uluru has not yet had any major role in the show. - Uluru appears in the graphic novels on nbc.com. - Isaac painted it. + Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Sylar will fight Uluru in a season finale.	None.	- Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Hiro will fight against Uluru in the future.	None.	+ According to Isaac's painting of Uluru that was published in the cover of "9th Wonders, issue #13", a man is standing in front of Uluru, if you look closer at this figure, you will notice that he has a ponytail and clothes that look similar to "Future Hiro", as he looked in the end of the 4th Episode. - The man in the picture, unlike Future Hiro, wears glasses. Also, his clothing looks more similar to the way Hiro was dressed in the season finale. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru will encounter Hana Gitelman.	None	+ In Isaac's painting of Uluru on the cover 13th Issue of 9th Wonders!, a person stands in front of Uluru. The person may be Hana Gitelman, with the same clothes as she wears at other times (The Death of Hana Gitelman). + Hana can see codes when she use her power, such as Isaac who can see the future with his paintings and he had an encounter with Uluru before (Isaac's First Time), so they both saw Uluru while using powers with ability to see things beyond normal view. - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
Uluru took control over Sylar during the first season.	None	+ It could explain Sylar's strange behavior that made him a serial killer. + Molly Walker said that there is someone worse then Sylar; she may have been referencing Sylar. + When Sylar visited his mom (The Hard Part) he began acting strange, and he looked like a different person. His mom noticed it. + Uluru is portrayed as an evil character, and he's the subject of one of Isaac's paintings, so he can be a reasonable person to take over Sylar. + Sylar made a lot of strange voices during the first season, some of them seemingly without any reason (Distractions, .07%) Sylar may have been possessed by someone, possibly Uluru. + In an interview, the writers stated that "we would see a hint of Uluru before the season is over". - Kring confirmed that Uluru only existed in the pages of the comic books.
