I mean Conceptual Transmutation would be the absolute pinnacle of transmutation in my opinion, I mean you can turn a concept into whatever you want (amplified by Intuitive Aptitude) and turn whatever object you want into a concept. Transmutation power actually doesn't entail what you describe. The concept is interesting, but I believe such effects are already covered by one of the higher tier powers. I cannot quite tell you which power is the closest hit, but Truth Manipulation on steroids combined with Reality Warping sounds like a good starting point. It's possible you might require Nigh Omnipotence or power on that level to achieve this.

Transmutation—in theory—should allow you to create anything out of anything else science-wise, BUT even subatomic manipulation requires you to balance the energy. So if you wish to create a solar system out of a grain of sand, you have to figure out how to supply the energy that separates one from the other. Even if you consider this a magic-based power, the energy will simply come from your "mana" supply instead. Either way, you can create life-forms to serve as your resource for this transmutation, or you might even try something simpler like designing a life-form capable of mass teleportation. As for science-based teleportation, I recommend you abandon the thought and go for portals / wormholes instead, but I still think that getting contact details for a "natural" teleporter is simpler... =P

Finally, there are tons of problems with creating a new solar systems. Namely, you would have to account for all the gravitational effects on the surroundings, otherwise you risk that some previously irrelevant piece of rock changes its trajectory and hits your brand new planet. And don't get me started on the notion that you suddenly manifest an entire solar system in your proximity. You do remember that transmutation requires close proximity, right? =P

Wasn't really factoring everything so you got me there, and I would probably debate and dabble on this topic a little more but I'm quite tired, but I get what you mean.
