Pierre Jules Cesar Janssen and Norman Lockyer&Edward Frankland in 1868. See also: http://www.vanderkrogt.net/elements/elem/he.HTML. --------- Sir William ramsay 1895 contributed to the process as did Joseph lockyer 1869
Helium was discovered in 1868 by Pierre Janssen and Norman Lockyer
Sir Joseph Lockyer (17 May 1836-16 August 1920) was an English scientist and astronomer. Along with the French scientist Pierre Janssen he is credited with the discovrery of helium.
Pierre Janssen, who was a French astronomer discovered helium in 1868. It was the English astronomer Norman Lockyer who proposed the name helium after the Greek name of the sun, Helios.

Helium discoverey (which was spectrocopic) is attributed to Norman Lockyer who was English from Britian and Pierre Janssen who was French from France.
Helium was first discovered in 1868 by French astronomer Jules Janssen during a solar eclipse when analyzing the sun's spectrum. However, it was British scientist Sir Joseph Norman Lockyer who named the element "helium" after the Greek god of the sun, Helios.
Helium was first discovered in August of 1868. It was observed separately by two scientists. The first was a French astronomer named Jules Janssen. The second was an English astronomer named Norman Lockyer.
Helium was discovered during a solar eclipse in 1868 by French astronomer Jules Janssen. He is jointly credited with detecting the element along with Norman Lockyer.
The discovery of heliumHelium was discovered by the French astronomer Pierre Jules Cesar Janssen during a total solar eclipse in Guntur, India, in 1868. The same spectral emission lines were noted by the English astronomer Norman Lockyer, also in 1868, who proposed the name "helium," after Helios, the Sun God of Greek mythology. In 1895 Sir William Ramsay separated for the first time helium from air in laboratory; the same year this experiment was repeated independently by Per Theodor Cleve and Nils Langlet in Sweden.French Astronomer Pierre Jannssen.
