We are happy to announce the Exoplanets in Our Backyard 2 workshop scheduled for November 2–4, 2022, in Pasadena, California, with virtual participation available. The Venus Exploration Analysis Group (VEXAG) meeting is scheduled two days after the Exoplanets workshop. As it becomes available, more information regarding the VEXAG meeting will be posted on the VEXAG website.

Exoplanets in Our Backyard 2 is a workshop hosted by the Venus Exploration Analysis Group (VEXAG), Outer Planets Assessment Group (OPAG), Exoplanet Exploration Program Analysis Group (ExoPAG), Mars Exploration Program Analysis Group (MEPAG), and Mercury Exploration Assessment Group (MExAG). The goal of the workshop is to examine and discuss exoplanet-solar system synergies on planetary properties, formation, evolution, and habitability. Topics include comparative planetology on worlds near and far; solar system studies as a baseline for studies of extrasolar planetary properties and evolution; and lessons learned on planetary statistics, demographics, and system architectures from extrasolar planetary systems. This workshop aims to foster and build new collaborations among scientists in the solar system and exoplanet communities and to help guide the direction of future exploration and observations of worlds in the solar system and beyond.
