Discovery of the noble gases Updated +Created
Discovering them was not so easy because they don't form chemical compounds. So they exist only as gases. And Helium disperses off into space.
Then basically all of the others were discovered by spectral lines. Helium notably was first found on the Sun like that, and only later on Earth! Thus its name. Pretty cool.
