In "modern times" as we know them, Uranus was the first planet discovered. All the other planets known to then were visible to the naked eye from earth, and, thus, were known to ancients. It is exceptionally dim and moves very slowly in its orbit. Uranus was discovered by William Hershel, who saw it in a telescope and announced his discovery on March 13, 1781.
The Neptune was discovered in 1846.
What planet was discovered in the 20th century? Pluto was discovered in 1930
and that's the 20th Century. However it's now classified as just a "dwarf planet".
Pluto, but it's only a "dwarf planet" now.
Pluto was the last planet. It was considered a planet but not any more. It's called a "dwarf planet" now.
The planet Mars is known from prehistoric times.
The five "naked eye" planets have been known since antiquity. Some unknown Babylonian or Sumerian astronomer were probably the first people to notice that these weren't just stars. Uranus, the first planet discovered in modern times, was discovered by William Herschel while systematically searching the sky with his telescope on March 13, 1781. Neptune was first observed by Galle and d'Arrest on Sept 23,1846.
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and the largest in the Solar System. Jupiter can be seen without a telescope and has been known since ancient times. Galileo was one of the first astronomers to classify Jupiter as a planet.
The largest yet discovered, designated HAT-P-32b, that is 0.941 times Jupiter's mass, and 2.037 times Jupiter's radius.
The gas giant planets Uranus and Neptune.
It was discovered by William Herschel on March 13, 1781 and was the first planet discovered in modern times. It is also the first planet discovered with a telescope as opposed to the naked eye.

Oxygen which was discovered by Lavoisier. It was before known as flojistcated air.
Jupiter was known about in ancient times so no way of knowing when first discovered. it moons were discovered in 1600's.
Two of them are the third of gas planets and the first discovered in modern times
The rings ofSaturn were discovered in the year of 1610 by a man named Galileo. He was the first to observe the planet though a telescope. At first, because of the tilt of the rings, he thought the planet had "ears". But he was a careful and consistent observer. He soon realized that what he was seeing was a ring . Saturn itself has been observed since ancient times.
The planet Mars is known from prehistoric times.
