The first solar system planet identified as such by use of a telescope (6)

I believe the answer is:

uranus

(Other definitions for uranus that I've seen before include "Seventh planet from the sun" , "heavenly body" , "space traveller" , "Planet of solar system" , "Seventh rock from the sun?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
