The only technology Bohr needed to develop his model for the atom was a spectrometer, which, in the mid-1800s, revealed the emission lines of hydrogen. In 1885, Johann Balmer developed a mathematical formula (the Balmer Series) that fully described these lines, but nobody could explain why it worked.
Neils Bohr combined the quantum ideas of Max Planck and Albert Einstein with the atomic model proposed by Ernest Rutherford, and developed an atomic model from which the Balmer Series could be derived.
He wasn't the one to discover the electron, Thomson was. He used Cathode Ray Tubes.
Bohr used the emmision spectrum of an element.
Uncertainty Principle can be used to give a drawback to Bohr's Model of an atom. In that atomic model Bohr said that electrons exist in certain well defined energy levels, to give a contradiction to this statement uncertainty principle may be used.
Yes, Niels Bohr did use the scientific method. However, the scientific method ultimately proved his hypothesis to be only partly true.
It wasn't so much he "discovered" something about atoms, but that he proposed an idea about them that, while extremely radical for its time, turned out to be basically true. Specifically, that electrons surrounding the atomic nucleus are in specific orbits of a specific energy level, and that the angular momentum of the electron in each such orbit HAD to be a multiple of Planck's Constant divided by 2π (a quantity abbreviated as 'ħ'). In other words, the angular momentum of any electron in orbit around a nucleus could ħ or 2ħ or 3ħ, but it could NOT be 1.5ħ or 1.8ħ . Like many other radical ideas, some scientists liked the idea, others did not. However, when the use of the Bohr Model was successful in making predictions about helium lines, the idea was accepted, as incomplete as it was.

The currently accepted atomic model is the Electron Cloud model. It is more accurate than the Bohr model because what Niels Bohr did not know was that electrons weren't always in perfect alignment in perfect orbit around the atomic nucleus. The Electron Cloud model shows that electrons do not have to be perfectly aligned around the nucleus in specific energy level 'rings' as the Bohr model showed.
It didn't - the planet Saturn was observed in ancient times, but Galileo was the first to view it through a telescope and discover its rings in 1610.

Since hydrogen only has one electron that constantly absorbs and emits energy while transitioning back and forth through its energy levels, Bohr realized that each of hydrogens orbits was quantized only allowing an electron of specific energy, frequency & wavelength, to occupy it. So he deduced that hydrogen only has a specific line spectum, thus it has specified "orbits" rather than "orbitals" of probability distribution of electrons.
yes
It's actually completely opposite, electrons can have only specific energies (non-continuous) when the electrons are a part of an atom(s).
