Best Answer

One can resolve surface details of Mars through a good amateur telescope. Olympus Mons, Vallis Marineris, and the polar ice caps which expand and recede through the martian seasons. Neptune is much further away, a somewhat featureless gas giant, with a low albedo.

We have landed numerous spacecraft on Mars, but have not sent anything to Neptune specifically (that I recall).

Why were Uranus and Neptune unknown?

Because they are so far from Earth, it is difficult to see them. Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Mercury are much easier to see and very noticeable when they are visible, so they have been seen for as long as mankind can remember.
