Ah I saw this yesterday, but didn't realise what I was looking at, but did think it was strange to see such bright stars so close together.

Me and my wife noticed these last night and were talking of how unusual it seemed. Then I noticed them tonight too and thought it was weirder to have stars be so noticeable for so long.... That makes more sense (http://mkb-cc.yanksrule.co.uk//Forum/smileys/beavisnbutthead.gif)
Normally at dusk or dawn, the first brightest star you see is Venus if it's up.

Idiosyncrasies
Sheldon exhibits a strict adherence to routine, such as doing specific recreational activities on specific days of the week, having a bowel movement at a specific time every morning (08:20), eating specific food items on specific days (Monday morning being oatmeal day, for example), getting up at a specific time every week to watch Doctor Who (every Saturday morning at 6:15), being unable to reconcile changes to food orders, doing laundry on a specific day and time (every Saturday night at 8:15), or knocking on the door three times in three sets while repeating the name of the person he is seeking with a particular frequency ("[knock knock knock] Penny! [knock knock knock] Penny! [knock knock knock] Penny!" being the most common) and if interrupted by them answering, not being content until he has finished the knock in its entirety; which is usually a three knock set pattern. He also makes loud noises (or musical notes with a xylophone) in every theater before a movie, attempting to locate the "acoustic sweet spot". However, he can adapt to seats with sub-optimal conditions, such as suitable cushion densities and light dispersion, provided he has the opportunity to test them.[58]
He refuses to sit anywhere other than his designated spot on the left cushion of the couch in his apartment, which he considers his "single point of consistency in an ever-changing world"[59] and "the singular location in space around which revolves my entire universe", exceeding his love for his mother.[60] He regularly reproaches Penny and other people for sitting in his spot, even when he is not intent on sitting in it himself. Even disruptions to this location are enough to disturb him. Although he did allow Penny to sit in his spot in the first episode, as well as Howard, for a short time in "The Apology Insufficiency", only 94 seconds later, he reclaims his spot. Sheldon's need to sit in certain spots goes beyond even his own apartment. For instance, when Sheldon comes over to visit Penny in one episode, Sheldon goes about the room sitting in random chairs until ultimately deciding a chair nearby the counter was his spot at Penny's. Also, when he had dinner at Raj's apartment, he insisted that they all figure out where they were going to sit. Raj's sister Priya dismissed this and suggested they all sit anywhere. Sheldon continued to insist they figure out spots until Leonard told him to sit down after which Sheldon claimed they were all like "hippies at a love in." Leonard again told him to sit to which Sheldon replied "Right on, man! Right on."
Sheldon is constantly worried about others touching his food. He washes his hands as often as he can, and he showers twice daily.[48] Leonard used Sheldon's concerns for food to mock him in "The Einstein Approximation", as did Raj in "The Engagement Reaction". Penny has stated that he still has not learned not to insult those who handle his food, to which Amy Farrah Fowler agrees.[61]
He is extremely worried about becoming sick. He became worried about Penny infecting him with influenza and subsequently contracted it.[24] Another time, he wanted a full medical examination by Leonard's girlfriend, Dr. Stephanie Barnett, in order to discover the cause of a high-pitched noise in his head.[62] When Howard's mother is sent to the hospital, Sheldon refuses to go due to exposure to pathogens and germs, until Penny confronts him. He accidentally wanders into a biohazard room at the hospital, after fearing the restroom's cleanliness, and endures a two-week quarantine.[53]
When Sheldon is complicit in a lie, he exhausts all of his efforts in his almost always unsuccessful attempt to make it believable.[63] Similarly, he cannot be entrusted with a secret because he develops nervous tics.[45] However, it is easier for him to lie if he has prior knowledge of the deception or an "ironclad alibi" thought out in advance, as opposed to it being "impromptu dishonesty".[64][65]
Once, he was distraught when Penny entered his room in the middle of the night.[66] On another occasion, Sheldon hesitantly let Penny in his bedroom to get a key for his desk to retrieve a flash drive, constantly reminding her that, far from creating a permanent easement, it was only one-time permission.[67]
While perfectly comfortable speaking to small groups, Sheldon cannot speak to crowds deemed large enough to trample him (36 adults or 70 children) without having a panic attack.[20] In general, he obsesses over safety.[68]
He also keeps a record of what he considers faux pas "strikes", which he allocates to those who violate his self-imposed conditions. Upon receiving three strikes, Sheldon gives them the choice of either apologizing or taking a class which can be done online.[39] For many of the characteristics aforementioned, Sheldon's friends often consider him "insane" or "crazy" despite Sheldon's repetition of another catchphrase "I'm not insane/crazy! My mother had me tested."[59][69]
Sheldon holds grudges for a long time. In the season 5 episode "The Russian Rocket Reaction", he explains to Amy Farrah Fowler that he has a list of 61 mortal enemies that he began when he was nine in 1989. The list was recorded onto a 5.25 inch floppy disc but when the floppy fails while he is trying to show the list to Amy, he adds "whoever was in charge of quality control at the Verbatim Corporation in 1989" to the list. He also says that Penny has only recently been deleted from the list, even after knowing her for five years.[70] During the episode, he removes Wil Wheaton from the list after Wheaton presents him with his last, mint condition, signed Wesley Crusher action figure. However, he immediately adds Brent Spiner, who, without realizing its importance, opens it. Sheldon then declares Spiner to be his "mortal enemy," though Wheaton reassures Spiner it won't "take up much of your time."[71]
