The word 'divulge' means to reveal or disclose information, which fits the context of not revealing further information to avoid jeopardizing the investigation. The other options do not fit as precisely in this context.

Jupiter is commonly known as the 'Bodyguard of the Earth' because its massive gravitational field acts as a cosmic shield, deflecting, capturing, or ejecting many comets and asteroids that might otherwise collide with Earth.

Uranus is barely visible to the naked eye under very dark skies and excellent eyesight, but it is generally considered not visible without optical aid. Neptune and Pluto are too faint to be seen without a telescope. Therefore, the correct answer is 5, which corresponds to option D.
