Question

What planet was first discovered? Who discovered it?

Answer 1

Hey Mate!

No one can say that who was the first discoverer as Venus, Mercury, Mars , Saturn and Jupiter can be seen with naked eyes.

It is said that the first planet discovered was Neptune by William Hershel in 13 March 1781.

Thanks!

Answer 2

Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn can all be seen with the naked eye, so it's impossible to say who was the first human to discover them, and when that was! Uranus was discovered by William Hershel on March 13, 1781.

Some of the planets have been known to people for as long as they have been watching the stars. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn can all be seen with the naked eye, so it's impossible to say who was the first human to discover them, and when that was! Uranus was discovered by William Hershel on March 13, 1781.
