added solar system events

Enhanced the what's up for the year page to include notable solar system events, like the oppositions of the outer planets. Below the constantly updated calendar feed...

Learned something along the way... Mars (and some of the asteroids) will not always have an opposition or solar conjunction in a (terran) year. I had to think about the orbital mechanics of that for a moment.
