In the recent, most important U.S. planetary science report of the decade, scientists have endorsed that NASA undertakes a flagship mission to Uranus , the least-explored planet of our solar system alongside its cousin Neptune .
Our water instead likely came during a brief period roughly 4 billion years ago when the grand migration of the giant planets of our solar system — Jupiter , Saturn , Uranus and Neptune — scattered large asteroids and comets all over.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — The last quarter moon arrives on Sunday afternoon! It'll officially reach that phase at 2:43 p.m. but the moon won't rise until the wee hours of Monday morning so you can catch the half-moon as you start out the workweek.
Speaking of the moon, you can use it to find some of the planets this week. It'll be near Saturn, Mars, Jupiter and Venus throughout the coming days.

The solar system's current planetary orbits seem stable, but that's only because the planets have settled into them over billions of years .
Currently, the best model scientists have for the formation of the solar system is known as the Nice model, after the town in France, where it was first developed in 2005.
China on quest to find first-ever habitable planet near solar system
Beijing [China], May 20 (ANI): Chinese scientists have proposed a space project named Closeby Habitable Exoplanet Survey (CHES) to survey the sky with the help of a space-borne telescope, in the quest for habitable terrestrial planets outside the solar system, said CGTN News.
So far, over 5,000 exoplanets or planets which are beyond the solar system have been discovered and also confirmed, said CGTN News. Out of the 5,000 exoplanets, 50 planets like Earth which fall in the habitable zone have been discovered as well.

Our solar system is in constant motion. The planets orbit the sun. The sun orbits the center of our galaxy. Celestial bodies twirl and tilt, creating a grand cosmic ballet. When we look up at the sky, the view is always changing. This is what makes stargazing so fascinating.
In astronomy, a conjunction is a type of optical illusion. It occurs when you look up in the sky and see two (or more) objects that appear close together. This event is only an illusion because the two objects are not really close together.
Get ready for Jupiter and Mars' close confrontation – Astronomy Now
Keep the diary free towards the end of May to witness another very close conjunction between two of the major planets in the Solar System.
Presently, Jupiter and Mars are located among the stars of south-eastern Pisces, with the red planet, shining at magnitude +0.75 and placed slightly higher in the sky, lying 5.4 degrees south-east (to the right of) of magnitude –2.24 Jupiter.
The ice giants in our planetary backyard are essential to understanding how planets form and evolve. It's about tim… https://t.co/pfGqhAC9rD exploreplanets (from Pasadena, CA) Tue May 17 14:09:21 +0000 2022
