Abstract: For decades the Solar System has been our sole example of a planetary system, resulting in the classical view of planetary formation as a local, orderly process producing stable planetary systems. The ever growing sample of known exoplanets, however, has shown us the major role played by orbital migration and chaos in determining the evolution of planetary systems in our galaxy. This brought to questioning our very understanding of the history of the Solar System and to suggesting that it also could have undergone a more violent evolution than previously thought. In this talk I will describe how the compositional information on the planetary bodies of the Solar System can be used to shed new light on its past, illustrating the past and current investigations performed in the framework of the NASA missions Dawn and Juno, and I’ll discuss how the same principles, if not the same techniques, can be used to investigate of histories of extrasolar planets.
