Odd lights of Noiseless Hovering Object seen gliding slowly over Pleasanton towards Livermore CA

Sighting location Sunol/Pleasanton/Livermore California. One object Sighted from Sunol Grade at 6:00pm off 680 heading North hovering in place. Blueish hue in the middle of object. Two red lights on what appeared to be the end of the object as it seemed to be horizontal in shape, these would blink on and off in strange intervals, top to bottom, they would also switch sides in a slow and odd fashion. One red light on Top of and white lights on bottom, green lights that blink turn on every once in a while. At bottom of grade at Livermore Exit Object appeared to hover in place as planes flew within close proximity of object. Object seemed to transform shape or move lights and could be seen clearly at this point. Lost Object eventually behind eastern hills as I continued North on 680 until Bernal Exit. Sighted in the southern sky at this point still alternating lights and hovering slowly gliding east.

Chased object easterly through Pleasanton until an end road off Vineyard Ave. Stopped car at dead end and exited car. Watched object for another five or six minutes as it still hovered about 400-500 feet from where I stood. No engine or propeller noises were heard object seemed very quiet, you could only faintly hear the traffic off Stanley Blvd. Object came close to horizon floating toward Stanley Boulevard. Could not get pictures or video with my phone camera, which is all I had with me at the time since I was on my way home from work. Object seemed invisible to the phones camera CCD. Object seemed to avoid horizon as I could almost make out the shape, but it glided north over Stanley Boulevard toward the Rock quarries and disappeared out of site. Time was 6:45pm at this point...Object never seen again.
