Thousands of UFOs spotted off US coastlines

📍 Location

📝 Description

Since August 2025, Enigma—a popular UFO/UAP reporting app and database—has highlighted a surge of Unidentified Submersible Object (USO) sightings near U.S. coastal waters. The company claims overall UFO/UAP reports exceed 30,000 since its 2022 launch, with more than 9,000 USO incidents documented within 10 miles of U.S. shorelines and roughly 500 within five miles of the coast; over 150 reports describe objects hovering above water or moving into and out of the sea. California and Florida are the top hotspots (389 and 306 USOs, respectively). Descriptions include underwater or airborne objects, often with glowing lights, moving at high speeds and sometimes exhibiting transmedium behavior (transitioning between air and sea with little or no splash). While some videos and eyewitness accounts exist, there is no official confirmation of the nature or origin of these phenomena, and authorities are urged to verify and transparently assess the data. The wave of reports has drawn attention from media outlets (e.g., Newsweek, Fox News) and defense/security analysts, prompting renewed calls for scientific study and government disclosure. Enigma’s data are presented via interactive maps showing clusters along both the East and West coasts.

🔍 Circumstances

Public submissions via the Enigma mobile app (iOS/Android) and web platform; data compiled into a publicly accessible map. Reports are often accompanied by videos or witness descriptions; Marine Technology News has been cited in coverage to define the term Unidentified Submersible Objects (USOs). The phenomenon is discussed in mainstream media and discussed by defense analysts, with calls for greater transparency and verification from authorities. Timeframe of heightened activity: August 2025 to December 2025.

👤 Physical Description

Objects described as Unidentified Submersible Objects (USOs), seen underwater or at the air–sea interface. Witness reports include glowing lights, fast and precise underwater maneuvers, and occasional transitions between water and air with minimal splash. Examples cited in coverage mention underwater lights and objects rising from or diving into the water.

ℹ️ Additional Details

Official confirmation of extraterrestrial origin has not been reported. Government agencies (e.g., All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office) have acknowledged unexplained cases but have not provided definitive explanations. The data emphasize the need for cross-domain verification (air–sea–space) and may influence maritime security considerations. Primary sources noting the figures include Enigma’s public data, Newsweek’s summary of Enigma's findings, and coverage from Fox News and CRBC News.
