Eli5:why is the mind still such a mystery to us?

It seems to me like we know more about something far like celestial bodies than we do of our own mind. Why is that?

But we don’t; we’re simply more satisfied with the info we have about celestial bodies far away because we don’t really care that much because they don’t affect us in our daily lives.

But for example, we can barely guess the mass of an exoplanet orbiting a relatively nearby star and we don’t really have any confirmation about how accurate that guess is, while we can measure to the exact gram how much our brain weighs.
