discoverable means you can "find" something even if it is not readily visible, and visible means you see something that is very apparent. So its a big difference between the two.
As an example:
The gas held within Marcellus Shale in Pennsylvania is not visible, and was not discoverable until someone hypothesized that certain rock layers might hold reserves of natural gas. The presence of the gas is not visible in any context; the only proof it exists is when natural gas comes to the surface via pipes after the rocks are fractured using specialized new technology called 'fracking'.
Similarly in the 1800s, oil under the earth's surface was not visible and its only presence seen by the naked eye were random pools of oil which Native American Indians used by scraping off the top of the small pools. At one time, this petroleum oil was used to treat a variety of medical conditions. But no one had the ability to extract the oil from under the surface until men used the basics of water-well drilling to design the first oil derrick drill (see Drake's Oil Derrick in Pennsylvania). Once men began drilling and hit an oil pocket, it was carried to the surface via pipes and collected, at which point the oil was visible and measurable.
Electrical current was visible to inventors, primarily through lightning. But the process to make an electric light had to go through a discovery process -- discoverable-- before citizens could benefit from the electric light/bulb. But, even now, the various components that make electricity work are largely invisible to everyday citizens-- only things like electrical cords, electrical outlets, lamps, and bulbs are visible, but what makes each work is mostly hidden from direct viewing.
In Law, 'discovery' relates to sharing known evidence. Evidence may be something visible-- a murder weapon, for example-- while other evidence may or may not be discoverable--for example, the motive behind a murder.
The bridge between what is visible (known, seen) and what is discoverable (unknown, unseen) is often an "hypothesis". Whether it's a Prosecuting Attorney trying to build a logical case, or a scientist trying to prove a logical outcome, both use hypothesis (thinking about and choosing a specific idea) to try to make something discoverable and / or visible. For example, a Prosecuting Attorney knows that phone records can often prove a suspect's prior where aouts; he hypothesizes that he can prove a defendant is guilty by reviewing the phone records. Einstein hypothesized over many ideas that ended up being his inventions.
The only difference is visible means that an object can be seen. Invisible means that it cannot be seen.
Visible light is visible (for the human eye), infrared is not. Infrared has a longer wavelength, and a higher frequency. visible light is visible to human i.e the VIBGYOR, above vibgyor are ultravoilet light which is not visible to human eye and below vibgyor are infrared light which is also not visible to human eye.
The spectrum that our eye had receptor is visible and the invisible is just purely out of our receptor range.
Visible light and radio waves are both two types of the same radiation (electromagnetic waves). The difference is that visible light has a higher frequency; a higher energy per photon; and a smaller wavelength.
Transparent you can see through, so this could be coloured plastic or coloured glass which you can see through. Invisible is not visible to the eye.

The difference is their wavelengths.

Many Scientists believe other life is discoverable.
hello cheeseburger oh hi ham!!
A constraint is a limitation that is visible and present. The difference between a constraint and risk is that a risk is problem that is not yet seen, or a potential problem.
When the ghost became visible, everyone ran from the room. There was no visible difference between the two samples of metal. As we neared the coastline, familiar landmarks became visible.
