The first asteroid discovered in 1801 is Ceres. It is the largest object in the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter. Ceres was initially considered the eighth planet until the discovery of many other asteroids in the same region.
The third planet to be discovered was the dwarf planet Ceres, located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It was first observed in 1801 by Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi.
The dwarf planet Ceres was discovered on January 1, 1801 by the Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi. It is the largest object in the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter and was classified as a dwarf planet in 2006.
The first asteroid to be discovered was Ceres, which was spotted by Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi on January 1, 1801. Piazzi initially thought it was a planet, but further observations revealed its small size and it was reclassified as an asteroid.
Vanadium was first discovered in 1801 by Del Rio.

April 24, 2006 the IAU gathered and voted the new definition for planet which immediately changed Ceres' classification.
The asteroid Ceres was discovered in 1801; the planet Pluto was discovered in 1930. In 2006, the International Astronomical Union decided to formally define a "planet"; this had never been formally done before. The discoveries of other distant objects beyond Pluto caused the IAU to finally come up with a rule. According to the new rule, Pluto, Ceres, and Eris (a newly discovered "tenth planet") were all classified as "dwarf planets".

The first asteroid to be discovered was Ceres, discovered by Giuseppe Piazzi in 1801, when he initially thought it to be a comet. Now designated as a dwarf planet (and the only one in the inner solar system) it has the mass of roughly a third of all asteroids the asteroid belt.
Ceres was discovered in 1801. Eris was discovered in 2005.
Giuseppe Piazzi discovered the first asteroid in 1801. The most recent asteroid discovery was made by the Catalina Sky Survey on January 1, 2014.
