On the night of the 16th of November around eight or nine PM. My partner and i went to our usual spot, the parking lot in 1st avenue. As we always go there to watch the sunset and sometimes stargaze and talk about the different people we see come and go during the time we spend there. We have seen strange red and white flashing lights here before on the horizon of the ocean and close to Koeberg, but as we have never experienced anything like what we did on the 16th of November, We thought nothing of it. On this specific night we were looking at the lights and how they dont really move but flashed and then disappeared, My partner insisted on me looking outside of his side of the window to see the lights more clearly, When i stuck my head out of the Driver side window and looked up... I almost felt as if the moment i was experiencing was unreal. I watched in a bit of a haze it almost felt as if time slowed down. A large object almost to far to be as big as it was, but we both could clearly see 3 Horizontal red lights flashing from the object as it slowly flew over the car. It suddenly flew straight up and stopped. we Heard a sound coming from it but it was not a continues sound. as the Object flew over the Roof of the car and my Partner and I looked in amazement from the passenger window it seemed like the object changed shape, but i could be mistaking as the lights that we saw changed as well, the front and back were two different lights. Red and white, they were not flashing though. We have seen many airplanes pass here but none of them this close and quiet, although we saw the object we could only make out the outline, there were no wings and the lights coming from this object were so bright that we could not see the color of the object, but it looked Dark in color.
