the Neptune was the first planet discovered through the use of mathematics by two astronomers one French and other English. This was breakthrough success in the field of astronomy that marked the importance of mathematics in astronomy. The discovery of the Neptune resulted from the need to explain the motion of Uranus, motion of which could not be explained by the gravitational effect of Jupiter and Neptune.It needed very complex mathematical equations to be Solved to explain it. The two astronomers were Joseph le Verrier and John Couch Adams.
